Need your help with choice

[Stuffit]

Does anyone know of a good gaming laptop? I’m starting to do some traveling for work and I want to be able to do my gamming on the road so I need a new laptop that can do things like Quake-4, COD-2, UT2007. Here are some I’m looking at, let me know if some of these are crap or if you know of a better choice, thanks!

Dell XPS no question.

Agreed. The Dell System is bye far the best you have listed there. The Alienware is close behind it.

toms hardware reviewed the xps gen 2 recently and viewed it as the best gaming laptop to date.

Check the gotapex.com site for deals on the Dell XPS II. Deals on that model are more rare than ohter laptops they carry, but occasionally it happens.

BTW: I would go with the XPS II also...it's a heavy beast but I think you'd be like me and use it as a "portable desktop" as you're not on the go and travelling all the time. you travel and stay at that one spot a little while so weight isn't as much an issue...guessing on your travel needs here... :D

You’re right on the money Buddha. Thanks for the input guys, I ordered the XPS-2 today because they had a $400.00 off deal ending tomorrow. I got everything on it but the kitchen sink for $3040.00 next day delivered. Most of the others it would have been much more for the same configuration. I was toying with the idea of waiting another few months until the Toshiba 19” comes out but after calling them I found out that the box it’s self would not have enough stuff to do what I wanted.

Anyway, thanks all..!!

You ordered me one too right?

[Stuffit]

Yes, Ronin... yuors is comming by boat.

:P

Well, I know the laptop is gonna rock, but let us know just how much it rocks.

Tech-lust is a good thing sometimes. :P

[twc.eX]

Agreed.. I'm dying to know how that thing actually works.

Hardware reviews only say so much.

[Artis]
