    Smile New Laptop

    Hi Guys,

    Well I have decided that its time to upgrade my laptop, I would basiclly like a laptop which will let me play the game EVE online in the background while at work.

    My current laptop 2Ghz Celery and Intel extreme (Bout as extreme as my gran) graphics barely crawl along. I have around a grand to play with but if you can do it for less all the better.

    So I turn it over to you hexus portable people, Links to purchase your recommendations would be very much appreciated!

    Cheers

    Andrew
    Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
    Enwrought with golden and silver light,
    The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
    Of night and light and the half-light,
    I would spread the cloths under your feet:
    But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
    I have spread my dreams under your feet;
    Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.

    I've been looking for a new laptop too, and a couple have caught my eye which would prolly suit you...

    Acer Ferrari 3200 is what i've been drooling over but £1200-1300 price tag is a little off putting, but i'm more likely to end up with Acer TravelMate 4501LMi which i've found for around £900-950.

    For a grand you should be able to pickup something decent, but make sure you get something with a dedicated video card n memory otherwise no matter how fast the CPU is, EvE will suffer..
