    i think most of the people here are getting one for school. there are some that are older and get it just to play games and take it to work but the majority that i have seen are in college. im going to be a freshman in college and college required a laptop so i decided to go with m15x since its powerful and offers great mobility options.

    Haha, I loled at this poll. From my experience (which is hardly representative of the user base), when I played WoW my guild had a few kids 14-17 years old who had their parents buy them Alienware laptops so they could run WoW. Well, nevermind it was complete overkill, but I guess they were drawn to the AW look (which I will admit is pretty cool, especially if you like really bright looking computers that make an impression) + bragging rights. My real guess would be somewhere between 20 and 30.

    There are two types of ages:
    1. physical age;
    2. mental age.

    In Alienware buyers we're all talking about the latter (just like with other things people like)... I've voted 5-10 :D.
