Getting a laptop

It's good, but you can find better deals pricewise. tigerdirect.com and Newegg.com are the two best sites.

He's in Europe in case you didn't see.
It also makes it quite hard because for his price range, if you get better components, usually they have Intel graphics.

Yep, some even more expensive ones have Intel graphics. I don't travel at all with PCs, it's just expensive to build a new desktop from scratch. Guess I'll go for this then.

No. It's way way cheaper to build a computer, and you'll get better specs.

I like the Toshiba Satellites.  Good 'pooters.

I know what you mean, but if I would already be building a desktop, I'd want better specs for it, thus it would end up costing more. Besides, laptop takes less room, not like I have room problems, but still.

Got it now. :D
Windows 7 feels really odd and uncomfortable compared to Vista. :u

Yeah, it does. Just asking here to make sure nobody has had bad experiences with HP or perhaps knows better than me.

Lol what's wierd is that I HAVE THE EXACT SAME LAPTOP.
Yeah its been good to me for the past few years I had it.It doesn' run Graphic Intensive games as in Fallout:New Vegas that good but it still runs well.Minecraft you need to keep on changing the fog distance alot I keep the fog distance on Short and The details on Fast not Fancy.

Can't run F NV too well? My old laptop with Radeon HD 3200 did that just fine, this one comes with 6470.

It costs a fortune for a gaming LAPTOP.
Last time i checked, alot of brands sell ones with GTX 460s for £1,000.

I'm pretty sure you can open laptop cases

The taskbar on Windows 7 is just ughhhhh...

[D3ATH]

20-37 fps in GTA4,  stays mostly at 25-33. Playable for me :D

[D3ATH]

Fallout New Vegas runs on high if I turn bloom/HDR off. Awesome.

You should be using DDR2 RAM for a laptop instead of DDR3.

I learned something new.

You'll get used to it.
