    Get a gaminglaptop now or wait for the new haswell/GPUs

    Still would like a laptop to do some light gaming for when I go out of my house. Cant lug a desktop around. Tablet is good for my word processing and web browsing but sometimes I need to share and show off what I am doing and a laptop is much easier for that as well.

    I have office already and if needed I could get that office 365 university. I do not really like being tied down in the RT version.

    Microsoft Surface Pro

    The Surface Pro is like a notebook. The RT is definitely tied to the microsoft store. Notebooks generally have a 4-5 hours of battery life anyways so Surface Pro wouldnt be left out in that respect. The touch screen capability is really nice. Another option would be to dive into the world of...
