Laptop with touch stick help.

by TSGamer Jul 14, 2009 1:44AM PDT

Hello Everyone,

I am currently looking for a gaming laptop with a dual pointer/touch stick. Depending on the brand, it usually goes by one of them names, or if you prefer the eraser head in the middle of the laptop between the g, h and b keys.

I am not a real "hardcore" computer gamer, more of a console gamer. But I am looking for a laptop that will be able to play games such as the upcoming SC2, C&C4 and DB3.

Currently I am on a first generation dell XPS laptop. My price range is around 1,200-2,100, I'd prefer if this included the warranty. Any ideas, advise or laptop suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any replies.

P.S. The brand really doesn't matter, my loyality to any one brand of computer has been shot I believe now. Just as long as the brand isn't about to quit, run off and drop their warranty after I buy the laptop.

Oh forgot a factor or two, would prefer if the screen was a 1900:1200 res screen and 15.4 or greater in size. As long as the quality would remain good for viewing movies, and or etc.

Thanks again.
