Playing VGs on Laptop
Well, apparently I'm getting a laptop for Xmas, which means I'm not going to upgrade my computer (Thanks for the help before however). I was wondering how is the laptop for playing games? Are there any videocards capable of playing the latest source games, like TF2 or Portal?
And is there any way to connect my 8600GT to a laptop? That's probably just ridiculous. xD Jam it back in, in the dark.  Want obscure Classical Music CDs? Search: http://www.lib.uwo.ca/ PM me the code, I'll rip it for ya [MAX 2 CDS/User]

That's the problem. I don't know what I'm getting. And I need your suggestions =)
How much did your MacBook Pro cost? I think my price range is below a grand. There's nowhere I can't reach. Want obscure Classical Music CDs? Search: http://www.lib.uwo.ca/ PM me the code, I'll rip it for ya [MAX 2 CDS/User] |

Nah, I'm forced to get a Laptop. But thanks for those sites.
How's this? PROCESSOR Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T7100 (1.8GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 800MHz FSB) OPERATING SYSTEM Genuine Windows® XP Home Edition LCD PANEL 15.4 inch Wide Screen XGA LCD Display with TrueLife™ MEMORY 2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz, 2 DIMM HARD DRIVE 120GB 5400RPM Hard Drive OPTICAL DRIVE 8X CD/DVD Burner w/ double-layer DVD+R write capability VIDEO CARD 256MB NVIDIA® GeForce™ 8600M GT $908 / $1,248 (if Vostro 1700) Is that okay for source? I don't mind about the HDD, I can get an external. And I prefer XP over Vista. Okay Ghey. Why is Dell USA much cheaper than Canada? At least 300 less. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it.

I might get this instead, since it's much cheaper. I forgot to use the Canadian site. I used a coupon which brings it from $1400~ to a little over $1000. Do you think that's worth it?

Yeah. I figured that much, but the deal in the site pretty much restricts what I can get. Nonetheless, it still comes cheaper than the Vostro, which is $1400 CAN, without the coupon.

Awesome. I just got a Inspiron 1520. Thanks for the help.... and HOPEFULLY, this TIME. It'll even let me play some freakin games. >_< (Damn my PC and its lack of PCI-E slot).
