    Anyone know how long the battery will last and if a replacement will be able from dell? The battery for this laptop doesn't show up in the list of components for sale by dell.

    It depends a lot on what you use the battery for. Graphic intensive applications consume a lot more battery than surfing the internet. I found this guide to optimize the usage though:

    How to improve the battery performance of my Alienware

    The battery that came with your Alienware computer has a 1yr warranty. If the battery is defective and still under warranty, it should be replaced without a problem. If what you'd like is an extra battery, you can send us an email at: [email protected], include your service tag and we'll set up a callback for you :)
