    It's time for me to get a new laptop, and since I'm a big fan of gaming an Alienware laptop is at the top of my list.

    It's not just going to be a gaming laptop, it will also be my regular use laptop for things besides gaming, like classes and general internet use. Can Alienware laptops be used for this, or are they strickly for gaming purposes?

    It has enough power to run crysis, and you think it will struggle on word documents?

    Alright cool! Thanks for the help. Sorry if it sounded like a dumb question, but I'm not very computer savvy and I need to make sure it'll be alright for college.
