I am looking for a laptop, i was going to get a desktop but mobility is a huge thing for me since i'm in college and need it in my classes.
so i want to get a gaming laptop, ive been looking for one that is under 1500 preferably closer to 1000. ive been looking at the alienware 14 but im not sure. i rather get some others opinions and go from there.

I was in the same situation as you were a few weeks ago, maybe you should look at getting a nice little tablet with a keyboard, like a Windows Surface(its pretty nice), and shove the rest into a gaming desktop, plus gaming laptops can get very large, not something that would be fun to carry to classes.

see i have a tablet already but i would like to get a laptop too. in about a little over a year or so im most likely going to get a desktop too but i want a laptop that i can game with too. my friend has a satellite so i have been looking at toshiba cause he loves it. i found one with

Toshiba Satellite P50-ABT3G22 Laptop
-Intel® Core™ i7-4700MQ Processor (6M Cache, up to 3.40 GHz) with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology
-Windows 8.1
-8GB DDR3L 1600MHz (4GB + 4GB)
-750GB HDD (5400rpm, Serial ATA)
-2GB GDDR3 NVIDIA ® GeForce® GT 740M with Optimus™ Technology
-DVD SuperMulti (+/-R double layer) drive
Lithium-Ion Battery (43Wh, 4-Cell)
Wi-Fi® Wireless networking (802.11a/g/n)+ Bluetooth 4.0 (300 Mbps)

i customized some of it. something like this a good idea or no?
