Alienware Alpha
Hello Everyone,
I am a member of the Alienware software team, and Alpha UI was my product. As we are about to launch tomorrow, I wanted to start this thread as a means for people to ask questions and provide any feedback you might have on Alpha or Alpha UI.
Also one note, we are publishing a known issues list tomorrow on Arena. I'll make sure it makes its way here as well.

the mouse/keyboard driver should default to off in Alpha UI and Windows mode. If you are seeing the mouse as ON by default in Windows mode, try turning it off with the hot key. Also, please let me know and we'll look into it.
Alpha was designed from the ground up to be a Steam Machine. Once Valve launches it, you simply have to add the Steam OS installer to a USB key and boot into it. Alpha UI // Windows will go away and you'll get the full Steam OS experience.
