Suggestions on a Dell Laptop

[DoughtCom]

I LOVE my dell and their support. In fact it's in getting warranty work done to it right now, however it's not Dell's fault it broke. I overclocked my Nvidia video card and they have problems breaking anyway.

The laptop though has been great, this is the 2nd Dell laptop I've owned and plan on getting a new one once the DX10 cards come out.

Just get the E1505 laptop, with around a 2GHz core duo 2 CPU and 1GB of RAM. If you're going to use it for gaming get the one I have (E1705) with a 7900GS and the nice screen (1900x1200) and you will NOT be sorry. Get either of those with the minimum memory and get the rest at newegg and save about 50-100 dollars. 1-2GB of RAM should be great for your needs. Try to get a 7200RPM drive too, they're worth the extra money in speed.

Oh and get the bluetooth card, there's lots of uses for having bluetooth on your laptop.
