ASAP - Friend advice
Hi, another question for you all.
He is looking for a laptop for 1000 quid max (excuse the no pound sign, on Windows on Mac with random drivers).
He was looking at Alienware but I said I'd look into it a bit for him. What would you guys recommend?
He is looking for a laptop to play games on. He has no space for a desktop PC where he is now, so a laptop is a must.
He was also mentioning WAN or connect to the internet from anywhere (don't know what he was meaning, I guess similar to a dongle?), he said this would be a nice touch since apparently it comes free with Sony laptops.
So can anyone recommend a laptop which would play games (latest) with decent FPS.
1000 pound max!
Thanks a lot people!!!!

Ok had a little look around and for that money, I kept digging up the MSI GT740-021UK (£955 best price as it's 1 in stock clearance).
I found a review of it and it looked alright but it did get beaten by the Toshiba Qosmio X500-10T (£930 but not in stock) if you can find stock of it.
I did come accross this: Samsung R780-JS1BUK (Price £925 and in stock) though which I haven't seen a reveiw for. It has a slow CPU, but it does have superior graphics to both of the above. It has a slightly lower res than the Toshiba though.
There may be better out there, but that will give you a starting point at the price range.
