Buying a New Laptop...Advice

Hello.

I am planning to bay a Laptop soon and I have kind of decided on a decent spec which should suit my needs just fine. I am not a complete expert on computers so i would appreciate advice regarding this specification.

My requirements for this Laptop are that it needs to be able to play high powered current games, and hopefully last a while for this criteria.

The spec is as follows:-

SONY - INTEL PENTIUM M 750 PROCESSOR 1.86GHz LAPTOP

# Intel Pentium M 750 Processor 1.86GHz
# 533 MHz FSB
# 2 MB Cache
# 1024 MB RAM
# 100 GB Hard Drive
# Double Layer DVD ReWriter MultiDrive
# 17" Widescreen X-Black LCD Display
# Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
# 256 MB ATi Mobility Radeon X600 graphics


To me this seems like a really nice Laptop (High Powered), I will be using it for many things such as many work projects.

However the real testing factor seems to be, can it last as a gaming laptop. From looking at the spec I would have thought that it would, but it doesen't hurt to check now does it.


Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks
