I've been looking all over online for laptops that fit my needs but am unsure which one to pick. I need a decent webcam, good brightness, back-lit keyboard, decent processor for gaming (2.5ghZ and up?) 8gb ram, and HOPEFULLY a graphics card instead of integrated. I'd like to keep it as within...

Hi everyone, my laptop was knocked off a table accidentally and there is no longer anything connecting the screen to the bottom half. There's no way for me to fix it myself as the material it's made with is cheap plastic which broke off. It's literally being held together with duct tape. I can...

I understand how the HDD works but is there a way to literally fasten it to the outside of the laptop itself? Velcro or something? I wouldn't expect anyone to do that kind of digging for me. Thanks for your imput though. It's been most helpful

Does the HDD enclosure attatch to the outside of the laptop or do I need to find a seperate way to mount it? SSD will load the Skyrim map faster? Looks like I'm good on RAM. SOL with the processor then, huh?

I have had this Toshibe Satellite (Don't know the model is) laptop for about two years now and the "hinges" connecting the screen to the rest of it have broken twice since I bought the damn thing. I need this laptop to carry with me to college as I am a commuter student. So, what I'm asking is...

It seems that Gentechpc and Mythlogic are both gaming laptops. Are there any specific hardware requirements I should be looking into for what I mentioned above? Can i just go to bestbuy with the hardware suggestions in mind and get a cheap laptop?

I've been searching the internet for sites where I can build my own laptop from scratch like PC Part Picker but to no avail. So I'm looking to build a laptop that can handle Ubuntu, Metasploit, CMD and other such OS's and Programs. I want it to be small yet durable enough to carry around...
