Need help selecting a notebook

tractorboy · 05-17-2007, 05:41 PM

I am not a gamer, so a friend emailed me asking for info oN purchasing a notebook for his son to play games on like World of warcraft. Oh yeah it also has to be multimedia

What is a good moderate priced notebook
What about alenware ?
The father was looking at a Dell E1505

Look at an Asus laptop because they're well-built and can be quite powerful if you can find the right one.

Yep Asus is a good way to go. Apple is not bad either. I'm in love with mine. Alienware lappy's are great if you got the cash. What EXACTLY does he want like specs wise? What type of cpu, how fast, how much ram, how big of a hard drive, etc? Post what he really wants and we can try to point you in the right direction.
