I'd be cool to have a 680 back in 2008
you'd rape every game 10000 fps

I want to build computers for people but like 95% of all the people at my school are apple cigarettes

Fixed, might want to look into upgrading

Already am, I'm gona try to get
+1 GHz
+2 RAM
and *see* if I can get another Graphics Card. If my Motherboard DOES have upgrade slots and replace-disable(when you put in dedi graphics in the upgrade slot it disables the Integrated Graphics) I'll get a NVida graphics card, see if I can find a $100 one.

sell it and put money towards a desktop

HELL NO!!!
I had a desktop as my last computer, and a desktop is a huge mistake.
And you miscolored mac. It's green bro, macs are badass.
And, I plan on upgrading my current computer for a few more years. In fact, it's pretty much as good as most new computers, so I'll be good for awhile.

No don't save up for a better one

Also you can't upgrade the graphics card in a laptop

You can in some laptops, mostly Macbook Pros.

Why are desktops so bad?

[Titanium Man]

im not saying that laptops are horrible or anything, but to say that a desktop is worse than a laptop is just handicapped

anyways macs aren't the best for gaming, but they're ok for everything else i guess

[superdupercoolguy]

Why are desktops so bad?

Simply mobility. I can't stand not being able to take my computer everywhere.

They're great for gaming IF you get CrossOverGames. Then they're compatible with about 80% or so of all the
windows-only games.
Windows: Compatible with 0% mac-only games

well if you want a really good gaming setup on a laptop, good luck.

mac only games? never have i encountered a game that is exclusively for mac that i was looking to have. there's simply no such thing.
