I would recommend the Asus G1 as a moderate to high end gaming laptop it was designed specifically for gaming, but it is a little out of your budget. So here is another Asus in your budget range. I have done enough research to have found out that users give the best reviews for gaming with there laptops go to Asus brand.

EDIT: and here is a link to many other Asus notebooks

Dell has kinda gone crappy over the past few years although recently they have begun to clean up their act. They can also be rather expensive.

Why exactly do you want a laptop over a desktop? Are you completely sure you want to give up gaming quality for compactability? Furthermore, do you do any sort of graphic or web design?

If you want a good gaming laptop, go with alienware, I found a very nice laptop just under your budget.

I also found this HP if you didn't want alienware...

i already have a desktop for daily use.. homework and such but it's not such a great gaming utility. I basically want a laptop for gaming/school

btw, what's the difference between the T2400, the lower numbers, compared to the T7200, the higher?

pretty much looking for a duo core 7200 with ATI graphics, higher the better but also cheaper the better.
