Hi all,
I've been mulling over some laptop options and now am hoping to get some thoughts on my top few picks.
My needs are intermediate, at least modest gaming capabilities and modest mobility/power. Usually will be used to play video/office work, but being able to show up to a LAN party for some StarcraftII or Diablo 3, and portable enough to hang out at the cafe with minimal fuss is wanted.
Want to spend <$700, and try to get a good deal (high bang/low bucks).
Here are links to what I am looking at (suggestions outside of these welcome too). In ascending price order:
