    I wish Alienware would add a dock port and docking station like the Precision line has. Does anyone else want to see this too?

    Nah, I don't want to be trapped at a desk. However, multiple screens is nice.

    When I put the lid down, the keyboard heats up to 130'F while gaming. With all that heat, your screen might look a little yellowish over time.

    Precisions are for doing Work. Therefore docks are necessity. For Alienware, optional for most users. And the extra heat dissipation when gaming does not favor docking.
