I'm deployed to Afghanistan right now and I'm really missing my video game time.. I was hoping I might be able to get some advise on what laptop to buy..

I've got a pretty big TV with an HDMI port I can use as a monitor so I'm not to worried about screen size. I'm just hoping to install Steam and play Skyrim, New Vegas, etc..

Since I'm not sure what will happen to the thing or whether or not I'll be able to take it home with me I'm looking to keep it as cheap as I can. Maybe $3-500?

Any advise?
Thanks

Unfortunately, cheap and gaming laptop don't generally go hand in hand as you pay a premium for a dedicated GPU. What's your budget?
