If you spec in the Demonology tree, you'll be one tough cookie... but if you go affliction you will deal a lot of damage-over-time damage and suffer less downtime, so you can run from one mob to the next without having to stop for mana (especially if you're an undead warlock). I personally leveled my lock to 60 as Destruction because I didn't know any better, but Affliction is really the quickest leveling spec in terms of spell damage and the complete lack of downtime.

Drinking is slow. Slow and boring. I can't stand it myself. I preffered Affliction for leveling because your net mana use after killing a mob is often zero, so you can just chain pull all day and all night. The dps may be lower, but the mobs per hour is much much higher.

DPS isn't actually lower until you get to MH/BT-level gear. Burst- well that's another matter.
And when all your fights with mobs last 10 secs or so then burst very much definies your DPS. So affliction's DPS
is
lower when grinding mobs. But like i said, it's still a faster grind.

Affliction for levelling. Affliction/destruction for endgame PvE and BGs. Arenas you really should be SL/SL, but that gimps you for anything but PvP.
You'd be surprised. It comes down to the person's gear and style of play. I was 24/37 and was #1 on the damage meters during a Gruuls raid. I didn't believe it myself, but I had my PVE gear on with buffs which brought me to around 1410 shadow damage.
