Yes it's like an internal USB drive just for this. I never saw the point of ready boost really.
I did too a while back before I built the HTPC to use with my DVD player so I didn't have to burn any DVD's and I could watch movies from it. I tried the readyboost and couldn't for the life of me see what it did.
I hope for you that the notebook came at least with 2 year waranty. The heating problems of alienware are very bad, the graphics card in my m5550 just fried a month ago after only 18 months of usage.
If you want to prevent that you should use a notebook cooler!
But hey... its an awsome system. Only the 1920x1200 screen is missing ;)
EDIT: Just saw that it has 3 years. Thats perfect ;)
