<p>hey all
ill be majoring in mech engg at the UNiv of minnesota.
So i dont have a lot to spend on alaptop.
something in the 600-700 range would be awesome.
id like a screeen smaller than 15 inches.
i basically have no idea of specs and stuff.
I wouldnt be gaming a lot though would like it to be able to have as good a graphics card etc as this much money can buy..
Help appreciated....
Thanks all!</p>
<p>gaming laptop is in itself an oxymoron. You should look at alienware for laptops if you really want to game. But at your budget i fear they are out of reach and also most gaming laptops have 17 inch screens. See dell they have some great laptops in their inspiron series. Tell me wat kind of games would you play for eg counter strike will run almost on any laptop.</p>
<p>Don’t get an Alienware. They are way overpriced for the hardware. Get an Asus or a Toshiba qosmio. For a lesser price you get a better CPU and graphics card. You should never go with Alienware. Check it out for yourself and see.</p>
<p>I don’t want a gaming laptop. You don’t get one in that budget. I just want the best laptop money can buy. Some help here!</p>
<p>Sorry I kind of got the wrong idea from the guy that posted before me. Here is one
