Which Laptop?

Hi all, my laptop is on the frits and i dont want the hassle of sending it back (Its also a bit old now spec wise) so im in the market for a new laptop, but im not upto date so need advice on what i should get please :),

I would like it to have:
1GB Ram and a DVD RW

I will use it for:

I Would like it to be prety future proof, at least for a few years and the kind of games will be upto dates one I.E HL2, Quake 4, Doom 3, EQ2 Style Graphics

My Budget is around £1000 Tho i can stretch a little higher.
