Get yourself 2 gigs of ram
I think dell latitude laptops are quite good. The inspiron are a bit cheap, but the latitude laptops are designed for business use and are much more solid and are better supported by dell, for only a modest extra price. I've had two, both with 3 year warranties. First one is still going strong, its now 6 years old... no chance of playing SH3 on that

And regards to CPU - not such a big deal what you get. graphics card will be the limiting factor. I have a T7200 (core2 duo, 2ghz) and I've just finished playing SH3 and when I look at the task manager history graph, it never went above 30%.

Whatever you get, I reccommend you get a 3 year warranty.

2GB of ram is worthwhile too.
