Endless Paradigm

Anybody know of any good US websites with good prices on gaming laptops? I mean like 2 GB RAM, 2-2.5 GHz, that sort of thing. Something fairly powerful.

how about a dell xps or something of the sort?was just surfing and came accross these 2, i know they are europe but im sure dell US will do them too.

what about AlienWare? http://www.alienware.com/

Alienwares are waaaaaaaaaaay out of my price range.

GHz means nothing these days, especially for laptops.  In fact, it's probably better to go with a sub 2GHz one, as you'll save more battery.

Really? What about games that require 2+ GHz? Can I play those on a comp with less?

Don't listen to them...  AoE3 "requires" 1.4GHz.  I've run it fine on 1GHz (downclocking my CPU).

Usually they're older games when clockspeed was the main factor determining speed.  Nowadays, it seems to be CPU cores and 64 bit instead.

(usually):
if you want to enjoy them, No.but get* a C2D

Gut a C2D? What does that mean?Oh, and do they sell black Macbooks? Cause I want that sleek black gloss look

ive got a inspiron 9400, intel core 2 duo 2.ghz per core, 2GB ram, 667mhz FSB, it came with a x1400, BUT... the XPS 7950GTX swaps in without any issues, so ive got a XPS 1710 for about 1000-1500$ less then they normally cost, granted i don't have the flashy lights and what not, but it cost a hell of alot less...
