Background
Alienware (formerly Saikai of Miami, Inc.), is a computer hardware company that specializes in PC gaming. Established in 1996, they produce notebooks, workstations, consoles, and gaming desktops. In 2006, Dell acquired the company as a subsidiary. Originally Dell kept the Dell XPS gaming PCs but they scaled this back in 2008. They focused on Alienware as their primary gaming computer with the launch of the M17x, a Dell/Alienware collaboration in 2009. This expanded the Alienware brand to 35 countries worldwide.

Identification
Alienware gaming PCs are known for their alien-themed designs. The brand logo on all of their devices is a small alien head and the brand name ALIENWARE is displayed across the bottom bezel of the screen in capital letters. They are also known for their wide range of sizes and they tend to be large and heavy laptops.
To locate the model number of your particular device, the label is typically on the bottom case over the fan grille cover for older models. The newer iterations don't have the specific model number listed on the outside of the device but the series number is displayed in large graphic block numbers on the top cover. For information on finding the specific model number for your device, visit the How to Find Your Product Model Page on the Dell website.
