Hey guys! I am really excited because its summer, I just graduated from high school, and I have a nice job lifeguarding so I am making some extra cash. I am getting a laptop from my parents for college and I have a 2 part question here.

First off, I am looking for an MMO to play this summer. I know about APB but that is about it. I am willing to give this game a try but I am open for other MMORPGs that are of high quality. My friend and I have a tradition now of playing MMO's together over the summer. We used to play WoW, then Age of Conan, and now we want to try a new game. Any and all reccommendations would be appreciated!

Second, I would like some advice as to which laptop to buy for college. I am going to be gaming on it as I am not bringing my XBOX 360 to college. I heard alienware is unreliable so I looked into ASUS, SAGER, and ACER. Am I missing any brands? I am not interested in MACs right now but with enough convincing...maybe. Also any graphics card reccommendations. Please try and keep the laptop around $2000. Anything over $1500 is no longer my "graduation present". However, if getting a really nice rig is worth it, let me know, because I might be willing to spend even more.

Thanks guys!

I would actually recommend Aion. Played the game a little awhile ago, and coming back soon because of all the awesome changes. Ignore the rating gs gave it the game is awesome.

Not surprising, with that graphics card in it... :P I have an ASUS N61Jq that now is my primary system for everything, and I get about 2-3 hours out of the battery depending on what power profile I use and what I do with the laptop. I never game on the battery, since I want to be able to power management top "high performance" for my games. It's a good little gaming laptop, and sexy-looking too. :)
