Thinking of buying a Notebook

Agent007 · 03-14-2010, 02:00 AM

Hi
I am just getting back into gaming and am looking for a bit of guidance. I am looking to buy a Notebook (something with about a 12” screen) and I was wondering if anyone has any views on what’s on the market.
I am looking for something reasonable priced, as the type of games I like are quest games (Broken Sword, Secret Files, and Monkey Island etc.), so I do not need an all singing all dancing unit. I’ve got a Nintendo Dsi but the choice of games are a bit limited.
I’ve gone with a Notebook for portability; the only one I’ve really seen so far is the Dell Alienware M11x, but there must be more on the market. Anyone got any thoughts?
Thanks
Phil

I think that if you can afford an Alienware laptop for portability, go ahead. The M11x will run pretty much every game with good graphic settings.
