Re: gaming laptop
Get the Dell E1705 with the 9-cell battery. You can choose to grab the Nvidia Geforce 7900GS, one of the best video cards on the laptop market. It's a pretty nice desktop replacement, with the large amount of customizations you can give it, and can be docked out to play the games you mentioned at the highest settings, and will most likely last you a few years.

Re: gaming laptop
Yeah, I will second the E1705, it is BY FAR the best deal on a gaming laptop on the market right now. One suggestion though, order the RAM from another dealer like newegg, that will save you loads of cash (especially if you plan on getting like 1 or 2 gigs, which i would suggest).

I'm with Ridley and Spooky. However, also consider the Toshiba P105 which could also be ordered with Nvidia's 7900GS.

The Sager NP5760 is a great, but expensive choice.
The Dell E1705 as mentioned will give you the most performance for the price.

Re: gaming laptop
I'm looking into purchasing the Sager 5760 as well.
One word of advice about the Dell coupons, those coupons are for the e1405 and e1505, PLUS they are only for single Proc rigs, not duo core...

Re: gaming laptop
I vote for the SAGER NP5760. I had an e1705 and although it was not a bad system--I think the extra money might be well spent ont he SAGER.
