Default New Notebook Advice

I'm planning on buying a new notebook for my education. My old one is just simply wore out. My budget is somewhere around 1400-1500 €
This it what i'll be doing on it:
- basic stuff (word, excel, surfing, mailing etc)
- running virtual machines
- some casual gaming (my gaming goes on mostly on my desktop)

My must haves:
- a 7200 rpm hard drive
- at least 3gb ram
- a "fast" cpu, preferably intel (think of something like the e8400)
- 15.4 inch screen (17 is to heavy, 14 is to small)
- gbit netword card
- a wireless card thats supports G and N networks
- very very good hardware support. I use my notebook pretty much 24/7 when it comes to my study. I can't afford to send it out to the manufacturer and wait for like 2 weeks. I preferably want to get it at some trusted local shop and pay more for it with better services.

I'm really satisfied with this (it's dutch but you can see the prices and the configuration) I'm not to sure about the brand though haven't heard much of it. I'm trying to find a retailer that sells xxodd notebooks and repairs them on the spot, but i haven't found one yet.

Does anyone have any more suggestions (web bases offers like dell are welcome to) for my new notebook?
