Hi there! I've been looking for a new laptop for a few months to replace my iMac and Macbook with something more suitable and economical. Usually this would be no trouble except for my addiction to that well loved EA game, The Sims 3. Now I'm all in a panic because I can't seem to find the right combination of Graphics and power, nor know where to look or what it all means. I would be much grateful for the help if it is available. Many thanks in advance, Koochielala
