Red face Looking for a serious gaming comp!
I am looking to buy a serious gaming laptop. I need some suggestions as what to get. There are so many choices and I am having trouble deciding. Here are my requirements:

-Must be from www.newegg.com so I can buy it on credit on my newegg account.

- Must have at least 2 GB of RAM.
- Must have at least 100 GB HD. Preferably more.
- Preference towards a 512 MB GPU.
- Great preference towards a tablet PC.
- Preference towards 64 bit Vista installed.
- Preference towards a laptop that can be overclocked.

-$2,000 budget.

OCing a laptop = bad, I know since my laptop is OCable. With no way to improve the cooling once you OC, it will heat up tremendously faster than a desktop (less air space + no way to put in extra fans). Just a bad idea to OC a laptop.

You're not gonna find a tablet gaming PC. You can go with either a tablet or a gaming system, but likely not both.
