Default Laptop required.

Guys, I'm after a laptop. Wanted a desktop but I am at 2 addresses currently (foreseeable future) so a laptop is needed.

Really want it for gaming (non-fps, more Diablo style). iTunes, and general films etc for work. Possibly bluray.

So need a decent processor, ideally a massive HD, decent size screen and a pretty good graphics card.

I don't think an Argos type laptop will cut the mustard, and was thinking of getting a Dell.

Anyone got any recommendations?

Dell I believe have a range of Laptops dedicated to Gaming. However they are not cheap.

I would personally set your budget then go round PC World and have a look to see if they have it in then you can at least have a look and feel of the build quality. Then shop around online and get it cheaper elsewhere.

I am a fan of Acer personally but wouldn't use a laptop for gaming so can't offer you anything further really.

Cheers for the replies! Maybe I should have added my budget! Lol.

I'm thinking 5-600 quid. Ideally I'd rather be gaming on a desktop, but I can't, so the laptop is key
