If you decide on a Dell be sure to get an extra gallon of Prestone anti-freeze to keep in the trunk.

Just curious.....Why a laptop for gaming? You could get a much better gaming desktop for the same price.

Suggestion: Don't buy a laptop for gaming, buy a laptop to do your portable computing.

Desktops are better for gaming. Better displays, better power-consuming hardware, freely/easily upgradeable. Cheaper too, and last longer.

Def want a desktop for gaming purposes. Some of the new games out now will bring a descent laptop to it's knees.

I use my desktop for FPS gaming, I want to use my laptop for my MMORPG-fix.

Nerd. You know you are a WoW addict when........you buy a laptop so you can have WoW on the go.

Not for MMORPG you will have to wait like 3-5 years after it is out to even have a thought of a mac install most never put out one

No Mac for gamers it is like buying a boat anchor

I'm not a big gamer, but I have a pc and a mac. If I were you I'd look into mac books if you are considering a lap top.

Gaming laptop under $700? Tell you what, you find a hot supermodel that likes ugly chubby dudes and I'll find you a good gaming laptop for under $700.

Mine was $600+ and good for everything EXCEPT gaming. Cheap laptops don't usually come with good video cards. Usually some type of shared memory card.

Can you just run windows from your Mac and still be able to play the games you want ?

that defeats the purpose of booting into a windows on a mac. thats like getting a ferrari and throwing a ford pinto motor into it.

a safer better route would be cross-over (i believe thats what its called)
