    28 Here [​IMG] Although at the time, I'm in between M17x's. Kinda of playing the field. Gotta keep my options open. Actually my "x" was becoming older and I wanted something younger and more attractive (RGB)...

    15 year old kids can't afford the "high maintenance" laptops.

    EDIT: I have since taken back this statement. :p

    Woo hoo, that makes me the youngest one! I'm 20 :D. And yes I'm pretty young to own such an expensive laptop but AW was my dream computer ever since I started gaming. Worked my butt off and finally took one!

    I'm 18...

    I've wanted one since the M9750 came out but I couldn't afford one. Got my M17x for high school graduation from my parents/grandparents.

    Upset that there wasn't a section in the poll for you BatBoy? :p Jks jks.

    too broad of ranges.

    Need to change the 20-30 especially. Like 20-25 and 26-30 or something similar.

    With some embarrasment I need to say 32.
    And technically I do still own a M17x R1. It just isn't in my vicinity anymore...

    23 years old. I technically don't even have it because my lady uses it more than I do. I usually just use my desktop or m11x.

    Will be 33 at the end of the month.

    Bought my first AW desktop when I was 29. Wanted one for years before that. :)
    I totally agree.

    Something like what they do for TV rating categories (these are a bit broader):
    • 17 & under
    • 18-25
    • 26-34
    • 35-54
    • 55+

    Well this thread or poll definitely breaks the notion that only adolescent teenage boys buy alienware PC's.

    Why "sigh", man? I'm 32 as well and think it's absolutely the best age.
    Though, have to agree, the most reckless days are probably.... maybe not ;)
