Laptop Help

#1
Hey guys, any of you know any good sites or places for deals on laptops? I want an above avergae one that cost about 700ish. I tried Dell and Compaq but too exepnsive. If anyone knows a good site or place, I would appreciate it if mentioned. The laptop will be mainly used for gaming and schoolwork. Im not a "hardcore" gamer but love to play mmo's. With the Video card, the main thing im worried about is the performance. I could care less about the graphics, I just want less lag and very good performance. I want about 1gig of ram and 60+ GB hard drive is fine.

I would think to get a reliable gaming laptop you're going to have to spend more than $700. The budget laptops always seem to skimp on video cards and memory which will kill your gaming, even some of the more popular MMOs. Then again it all comes down to how much detail you can accept to turn down and what you consider a tolerable framerate.
