Tom te tom te tomYep, you hit the nail on the head there. I tend to avoid gaming on laptops (even the top of the range Alienware notebooks soon get out of date). Personally I stick to gaming on a games console, at least you know it's supported for the life of the console.Totally agree, the rest of my gaming is done on a ps3, WoW is PC only and I am mostly happy with it on the desktop running under cedega on linux.If I was wanting to play games on a PC, I'd choose a desktop every time, with a decent graphics card which can be upgraded.I have no choice in the laptops. They are the only choice from the Home Access grant, a stunning choice of two and incredibly expensive for the spec but there is nothing I can do about that.
Home Access? Is that the government sponsored, give a PC to low income families thing? Rob -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
