I'm going to buy a new laptop. I am looking for one that can play diablo3 and starcraft 2 when they come out( Looks like in around 2 years lol). It also needs to be reliable for school. I have a nice 40inch TV that I could hook it up too. I was looking at this one and was just wanted to hear some other opinions on it. I know its a bit expensive but im ok with the price.

I wouldn't get that for it's price, Asus and gateway make laptops with better components. Here are a few;

It's a bit more expensive but your getting a mobile core i7 and a GTX 260m graphics card.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834101203

This one is a 2.5 C2D, but has a GTX 260m GPU and is 1149.99

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220639

This is an ASUS with the same CPU and GPU as the gateway

The first one is great with it being a mobile core i7 CPU and all three have better GPUs, which will do better for gaming.

I guess I never realized that it was Toshiba Canada. Sorry about that, thats why I thought it was expensive for what you were getting because I thought it was US currency. All the Newegg things I listed were US prices and I don't know if they ship to canada or not.
