The Alienware Aurora R4 arrives in a box big enough to house a small family.
Inside the box there is a small flat box which contains all the accessories. This can be seen resting on the main box above.
The bundle is extensive, including a TactX mouse and keyboard, Alienware branded mousemat, literature, power cable and software/operating system discs.
Both keyboard and mouse are quality items and we like the ‘Alienware' branding. It will reassure the user that they have indeed bought something that little bit ‘extra special'.
The main system itself is protected inside a smaller box inside the main shipping container.
Inside are some very fancy sculpted plastic panels which ensure the curved panel of the chassis is protected during rough shipping.
Underneath, the main computer is protected inside a soft felt cover.
