The thing is they have these laptops but only 5 in stock!
Thats why i need to know if there good. What i manily be doing is gaming (nfsu2, cod, steam) but also website bulinding, watching dvds, listening to music and doing school homework.

30Gb Hard dive (enough for me)
256mb Ram (will probably get another 512mb stick for it)

Yeah, if you'd tell us the brand we'd be able to make a better suggestion.

Personally, I believe gaming belongs on the PC, but there sure as hell are some powerful notebooks out there. I have a pal who has a Dell with an FX5200 which he got a couple of months ago and it does perform really well when he's at LANs with us.
So if it's a Dell, & one at such a price I'd say go for it dude.

Notebooks can be pretty badass for gaming...

I just bought this one!

Falcon Northwest FragBook DR 6800
Intel Pentium4 3.4Ghz Prescott Processor
512MB Dual-Channel DDR2 Corsair RAM
256MB PCI Express GeForce 6800 GO
60GB Hitachi TravelStar HDD @ 7200 RPM
Lite-On 16x CD/DVDRW +/-Combo
DR 6800 TV Tuner
SMART Li-Ion Battery with 20 hour life
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX
Infiniti 6.1 Surround Sound System with RealSound
Microsoft Windows XP Professional

Here's the notebook itself...


And the cool steel briefcase it comes in!


Way worth the $5,129.72 I spent on it.
