Because of my poor eyesight, I really can't use a laptop as the screen
is too small for me. But with that said, you might want to check out
Digital Storm. They seem to be very well reviewed and I think they make
some gaming laptops. It is worth a look anyway.
Good luck !

Soo...this may sound like sacrilege to folks here but I guess it might be
time for me upgrade my computer for gaming and I was thinking about going
with a gaming laptop (*gasp* I know!) and I was wondering what people
thought of that...
My roommate currently uses a Dell XPS 1720 from 4 years ago and it's
worked ok for him (it has had and still continues to have heat dissipation
issues-what you get for cramming full-size desktop parts into a laptop
case I guess-though he was able to play stuff like Mass Effect 2, Dragon
Age, Arkham Asylum so it seems like it's pretty decent) and that's my main
worry about taking such a path myself; well along with gimping myself on
CPU/Graphics capability too.
The main reason for considering a laptop over a desktop would be b/c I've
gone from spending time in my room to being out in the dining room (now
really our den since there's three laptops and 2 of my 24" monitors and a
5.1 speaker system on it at any one time, if not more!) b/c then I can
watch the TV in the living room while on the computer (which is what my
roommate currently does all the time too while on his laptop).
So I was wondering whether the tech had gotten to the point where certain
laptop models could adequately replicate what you get in a desktop as far
as CPU/Graphics go. What do folks think?
And obviously since you can't "build" a laptop (other than customize the
specs) would Dell and specifically Alienware be the only option for a
gaming laptop, or are there any other feasible options out there? Anybody
on the list taken this route and even have/use a gaming laptop or would
everyone be purely desktop for gaming...?
