This summer I am planning on getting a new laptop. My budget for buying the laptop is between $200 and $1000. What I usually do on my laptop is play SimCity 4 (with over 1 GB of plugins and massive cities, my graphic card and processor often gets overloaded) and surf the internet at a decent speed.

I do not care much about the hard drive size (at least 120 GB), but I am planning on playing Empire Total War and/or Left 4 Dead.

A lot of the newer Dells work really well. I have one and I use it for mainly school, but the main game I play on it is SimCity 4, and it works really well. It actually goes faster than my desktop a lot of the time!

I ordered the dell studio 1555. It is a brand new model that came out this March. It can play cryisis on medium, and is $1000 canadian for the mid range model. I don't know if you are talking US dollars or not, but this fits well into your price range regardless.

I used to have a Dell Laptop. I got MANY problems with it.... I now use an HP G60
it works pretty well for most of my games... and never had a problem with it so far!

I've heard rumors that not only is dell evil and eats the souls of small orphans but it also uses cheaper parts in its computer.

Also to topic creater. I asked this earlier and they said get the best graphics card possible if you want to play games.

I was talking about U.S. dollars. I also forgot something, a computer that's screen does not stay dead even though the computer is on and refuses to turn off. My laptop, a Dell Inspiron 6400 repeatedly did that for the past 14 months and you could have guessed how many times I wanted to chuck it out of the window.
