Gamer

Buying a laptop to play video games with? Look for a graphics card that comes with its own Video RAM to boost the reality-factor and a screen that is at least 15 inches. You'll need plenty of RAM, at least 512MB and the fastest processor you can afford. If you'll be carrying it with you frequently, look for a laptop that weighs 4 to 6 lbs for the best blend of size and portability.
