You can read one here : http://gizmodo.com/5504364/alienware...eight-division

You can switch from the integrated intel graphics to a discrete onboard video card, so your wife can use it at work in just integrated, but when you get the new Civ you can switch it over. Battery life is great on it too, in integrated graphics mode with active browsing it was well over 6 hours.

Specs :
Alienware is a boutique brand and severely overpriced. It's not something I would recommend to anyone to be quite honest because it is not good value for the money. That said, if you are will to spend, go for it if you like. I think they are a big ugly as well.
