I recommend newegg, and use Fedex for shipping as UPS sucks [H]ard.

Get a:
X2 4800+
2 - 7800GTX 512mb
2gb Ram
300gb Maxtor 16mb cache drive

And whatever else.

I agree with what others have posted except the CPU. You should definitely get an Opteron CPU.

There's something about having all that power in a laptop that makes it so attractive.

I agree with seniorpaul...you don't get a much better setup than that...unless you consider an Opteron instead of X2.

 

[GeForceX]

You forgot VapoChill.

I recommend you get the 4800+ instead of an Opteron because, with the Opteron, you have to use:

A special motherboard that usually won't have as many enthusiast features as the DFI
Registered memory, which is slower and doesn't overclock as well
