Alright I kind of want to get into PC gaming...

I have an Xbox 360, but pretty much all the games I have/want are also on PC. I'm going off to college after this next school year ends, and my current laptop is barely good enough to go on the internet and stuff, so an upgrade would be required anyhow. But I'm not really good with hardware and stuff. I mean I can look at the specs of a game and find a laptop to match them, but perhaps not super efficiently. So my very general question is what's a good cheap (meaning no more than like $1600) laptop for playing games that are currently out and from the past? I'm fine with brands if you don't want to go super specific. Games I would get for sure would be Fallout 3, Mass Effect 1/2, Grand Theft Auto IV, Dragon Age Origins, and games around that sort of specs. Thanks in advance...sorry for the wall of text...I always feel the need to explain unnecessary crap when asking questions.

core i7 1.6ghz hd 5870 mobility radeon, 4gb ram (room to expand to as much as 8gb) windows 7 home premium (64 bit) $1489

another option is the alienware m17x but its about 200 dollars more.

My suggestion would be to google "best gaming laptop" and work from there. You'll learn quite a bit on the way as well.
