Totally agree... horrible decision. Not many people I know actually buy Alienware anymore. Lots of my buddies have all been doing cyberpower or ibuypower or Asus or MSI... so if this screws with those types of builders as well then AMD seriously just chopped off it's own legs.
My understanding is this only affects oem machines, Lenovo, hp, etc. Boutique builders like iBuyPower aren't supposed to be affected. Still I agree. These exclusive deals serve to do nothing but harm.
