often you can get these for only a few hundred bucks
a heads up? forget the quad cores as yet !! check the fsb to cpus on mobo, trust me as a pc tech core 2 duo e8400 - e8600 stock will peform faster than quad for sh5 as 2 early 2 utilise cores thats for multitasking. as long as u got fast ram not alot of ram is needed ie 4 gb more than enough. and a half decent graphics card so there is no bottlneck, all will run fast and smooth, ps the guy gunning for the laptop should stck desktop end for gaming, as upgrades much easier and can then pack more able power supply unit to support. cheers
