Yeah, need any advice. just ask.

Think i priced up a XP2500 machine for under £700, everything but a monitor! so with £1500 could easily build a f00king monster pc

yeah laptops arnt meant for gamin, but if you want to play games on it make sure you get a GeForece Go graphics card, most 32MB cards run most games

laptops are usually wank for gaming.
ones i have come across anyway, if you want a high power kick ass piece of machinary get a proper PC. Laptops are for portability
