Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone could help me find a laptop or desktop. I want it to be atleast decent for gaming but I need it to be $1000 or less if at all possible. I would rather have a laptop than a desktop due to personal preference though. If anyone knows of any good deals or anything please post it up. Thanks in advance! B)

a laptop is going to be confining with game play vrs dollar deal.

most deals once scutinized a shipping with an outdated celeron 4200 rpm hdd and the like...

if it a laptop you seek, you should be prepared to wait out some pricing.
off the top o th ehead, something with 17 inch screen 2 gigs ram faster hdd ect can be done for 1100-1200.00...after negotiations.

www.ibuypower.com looks pretty good with its prices

if i buy a desktop, the printer is free....and the 17 or 19 inch monitor is always flat screen for either 50.00 or free in a bundled deal. so for a desktop its cheaper.

cookie is a lil more up on the laptops than i, i have mentioned this to him so he would get his butt in here and post his knowledge of whats up.
