Serious LAN gamers, that's whom. Desktops are only recently becoming viable gaming platforms, explaining why people don't associate them for gaming. All that laptop using FPS LAN gamers need is their laptop, power cord, mouse and headphones which is much more portable then desktop systems and monitors.
Many others out there don't have laptops themselves because they didn't want to spend so much money on a computer that couldn't play their favorite games. Thing is, now they can play their favorite games on a laptop, and many will give laptop purchases more thought.
Yes but not many of the 14-18 year old gae group is gonna be able to afford one, which i believ is the only group who has the time for it.

Like a person older than 18 could possibly have any use for a GeForce4 440 Go. How silly of me. How silly of nVIDIA to put out a product with no potential customers. How silly of Dell to offer the GPU in its top of the line laptop.

Agreed. Most of the people don't get the top of the line GPU, be it laptop or desktop systems. However, I do know people who are now only becoming interested in laptops because of the fact that they can contend, graphically, with desktop systems. Not because that's all they care about, but because they figure if they're going to spend that kind of money, they should at least be able to enjoy some gaming.

Hope so, Notebook sales are marginally down at the moment. and my customers are trying to squeze at least another year or so from them.
