When i got it , it game with vista on luckly for me i already had a copy of windows 7 :)

Thanks for the tip, but that looks a little out-dated for my tastes. I found another one, though, which seems better. Am I right? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834157046vgm007

yeah thats nice, good for price 4gb RAM, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit , ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 ,, thats a nice laptop :)

It's the top end of your budget but I think worth the money for sureToshiba Satellite A505-S6020; comes with an i5 CPU and nVidia 310M.

Whilst there's currently no image available on newegg, I was able to find this video which is pretty in depth.

Best laptop for less than $800:

HP Pavilion DV6-2144NR

Best laptop for less than $900:

ASUS X83VP-A1

(Comes with the same GPU, but the processor is miles ahead of the Turion II listed above)

Best laptop for less than $1,000:

ASUS N61JQ-X1

(It's over budget, but the processor is ridiculously fast compared to the mobile C2 listed above. I'd recommend this if you're into RTS's and such)

Best laptop for less than $1,100.

ASUS G51Vx-X3A

(I'm just keeping this option if you require a beefier GPU. The laptop sports a GTX260m which is quite a bit faster than the Mobility 4650 in the above laptops. I wouldn't be surprised if it could handle Crysis with a mix of med/high settings)

What about the alienware M11x? :?

I've heard that's a good one that starts at 800 I do believe.

It has a slow CPU and a mediocre video card. I'd only suggest it if the OP requires an ultra-portable.

I would suggest maybe something with a ATI 4650m or a GT 240m Though I dont have experience with the 240m.

Your kinda forced to run small res on m11x so is alright.

900 with gtx 260m. C2D, i7, meehhh they all the same for laptops if your wondering is not like your going to OC it.
