Somewhat Gaming Laptop

[motoxer4533]

Hello everyone. I'm looking for a laptop that I can take around to college, and use when I'm not using my desktop. However, I am pretty big into games (Mostly America's Army) and I do web designs too, and I want to make sure that this laptop will be able to handle them.

I have gone to places like Dell and Alienware to customize laptops, but I just don't know exactly what I'm looking for - what I need and don't need.

I don't want to spend much over $1,000, maybe up to $1,200.

Could you guys build/customize a laptop to meet my needs?

Thanks.

Your probably looking for something like this:

Dell XPS M1210

It has a nce core 2 duo processor at 2ghz which because its a duo it would be like having 4 ghz, it has 1 gb DDRII which is fine. Does anyone else know anything about the graphics, you may have to upgrade them if you have the money.
