    Need new laptop, school and game

    haha I feel like if I put Civ V on my laptop then I wont pay any attention class. I'll just keep it on my desktop. But yeah I don't know much of anything about mobile GPUs. I'm just reading reviews now, I'm partial to nVidia cards though so I'd prefer sticking with them

    Dell died, need a new laptop/netbook

    Thanks. My sister just got a Toshiba Satellite yesterday. So far it's nice but I hate how the trackpad and spacebar isn't centered. You don't think that Thinkpad will be too heavy? Maybe it's just looks but it looks kinda clunky

    Dell died, need a new laptop/netbook

    Yeah so my Dell crapped out on me for good, learned that I'll need a new motherboard which costs more than the laptop itself. I already have a desktop that I use for gaming and everything else. This will only be used for class 1. What is your budget? under 500 would be great 2. What is the...
