Title: Gaming Laptop - Need Help!
Post by: TheArmy on June 15, 2007, 04:26:44 PM
Well it's almost time for me to purchase a new computer, but unfortunately it has to be a laptop because it's primarily for college. I have looked at Dell and Alienware, but I don't know. Seeing as some of you guys are pros when it comes to this stuff I figured someone here would be able to help me. Basically I need the best laptop I can buy for $3000.00. And I believe I am going to need to stick with Windows XP because of Windows Vista's compatibility issues and it's non-existent support for SLI or Crossfire. So if anyone has any ideas or recommendations I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

thanks for the reply but I would love it if you could provide me with a model number or some specifications. To everyone that replies: please give me specs or a model, what graphics card(s) should I get, etc.

No doubt the M2010 is pretty sweet, but it's bridging the gap between laptops and a desktop. IMO, at 20" and 18.3 lbs, it's not exactly portable...
