Hey all

I'm looking at buying a new laptop, because the HP Pavillion G6 I have really isn't cutting it...
I have around $1000CAD, give or take a few hundred, and need something that can handle the likes of photoshop, minecraft, garrys mod, GTA and other games on med-low settings.
Battery life isn't a huge issue, I'm usually near a charger, and the screen doesn't have to be a huge, unicorn-dust coated beauty. Colour accuracy IS important though, for art and image editing. At least two USB ports are needed, and a disk port would be nice, though they seem to be a rarer sight with new laptops.
Not against a macbook, nor do I have any brand preference.
Any and all tips would be greatly appreciated!
