Theres something wrong with my Minecraft:
I have 5 GigaBytes of memory allocated to Minecraft but the FPS is still at 6-20 I should be getting at least 100 FPS with this much memory but I don't know whats happening
On rare occasions I get 61 FPs but that only lasts for about 2 seconds
My other computer which has 1GB of memory gets at least 60 FPS and I'm putting 5 times more memory into this minecraft
No. Intel HD Graphics are integrated, and integrated graphics are famous for being relatively sluggish, at least more slow than dedicated graphics are. Here is a comparison: I used the older Radeon HD 6670 (The card I personally use until I upgrade to a 750ti) and put it up against one of the better integrated graphics chips, the Intel HD 4000. (Source: www.game-debate.com)
As you can see, the core clock is faster, even though the integrated chip's architecture is newer. In the picture below, you will see that game-debate confirms that the HD 4000 is nearly 154% worse than the 6670.

No matter how much RAM you through at Minecraft, it will only ever use 1 gigabyte. Probably you other computer either has a better graphics card, has a solid-state hard drive (which speeds it up significantly), or both.
Minecraft mainly relies on your processor to do most of the work. Graphic card does some, and 1gb ram is all minecraft uses anyway so, unless you use optifine when it comes out for 1.8. That will help you alot
Vista runs better with the same specs as windows 7. I have both os's and vista is slightlybetter performance since it uses less resources than 7 does.
OS does very little to gameplay performance. Unless the operating system is using extremely CPU intensive effects, than most relatively modern operating systems will perform pretty much the same. Take a look at the chart below that compares Windows 7 to Windows 8 performance in Battlefield 3.
The framerate difference is less than 5 fps. Not even enough to notice. Any OS cannot make up for sluggish hardware.
Thats what I mean't by my "opinion" I made there, os does not usually make a difference. The computers architecture does.
In hardware, (or in this case, software) opinion doesn't matter. You cannot just say "In my opinion, the Vista is faster than Windows 7" It just doesn't work like that. Speed of the OS and hardware is all based on fact.

Alienwares usually contain top-notch parts, and are also built with high stability and good quality, but they are overpriced as hell. That computer will most likely cost you at least 1,400$, and you can get an even better desktop PC from iBuyPower for under $1,000. Trust me. If you're going to buy a gaming computer, get a desktop. They are much more customizable, upgradable, and are generally more powerful.
No matter how much RAM you through at Minecraft, it will only ever use 1 gigabyte. Probably you other computer either has a better graphics card, has a solid-state hard drive (which speeds it up significantly), or both.
You know you can make Java use more RAM, right? Also, an SSD won't make a difference in performance (from personal experience, so I'm not sure).
On topic: I don't suggest an alienware computer, nor do I suggest a laptop of any kind. A new graphics card is all you really need, anyways (from the looks of it). If you do want a new computer, look around for one that has a good amount of RAM (6 gigs seems good enough, though 8 is obviously better), along with a good graphics card with a couple gigs of V-RAM. Other than that, I would suggest researching some good computer specs and seeing what you can afford.

The graphics re too high?

The computer that has the FPS lag problem isn't even mine...
