Hey nissanzt90, It's nice to hear from someone with a similar config. :) At present on my proper gaming rig, I have 30 tabs open, an HD movie running, some downloader software, and a smallish game running in windowed mode. That is all I expect from my laptop. Can your system handle this load...

This Asus is available now. I have been eyeing it for a while now. 8 cell battery. very portable. only 0.3 MP camera though. and discrete graphics. an nvidia 210M. http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6089226&CatId=4965

Thanks for the input :) I'm considering the Acer you mentioned. The Acer Timeline seems super for its 8 hours of battery life but the performance is less than mediocre and so not future proof. That is why I'm thinking the MSI with the i5 or the Gateway with the 5650. But I have a great desktop...
