I picked up an Acer laptop about 2 months back. Fairly similar spec, just a different GPU I think. Runs TF2 very well. I think it was about £660 when I bought it. I good deal imo. Go for it.

I think the geforce 9200 is a load of cack for games. Beth got a cheaper laptop that had a radeon 3600 in that handles games pretty well.

Laptops are never good for gaming! They get old really fast and you can't upgrade them.

Indeed, for £599 you can get a pretty good gaming pc, which is way better then the laptop :D

not exactly great for taking around with you though.

i think gimpy's title 'on the move' is the giveaway.

There's times I wished I had a laptop with an 8600 in it or similar, sat bored as shite in hotels when working away!

For gaming this laptop is let down by it's graphics card.

Better off picking up a refurb bargain like either of these..

Better graphics card, 4gb RAM, £150 - £200 cheaper.
