Alienware was founded in 1996 by Nelson Gonzalez and Alex Aguila as Saikai of Miami Inc., manufacturing laptops, desktops, workstations, and PC gaming consoles. Employees claim that the name “Alienware” was chosen due to the founders’ love of the hit television series The X-Files, which also inspired the science-fiction-related names of product lines. The company changed its name to Alienware in 1997. Want to get your hands on some exciting Alienware products at attractive prices with our Alienware coupons? Read on!
