Bob was looking to run a bunch of older games, technically he could
probably run it all on a $500 dollar 17" HP notebook.

Also, if money is no object I think Voodoo PCs are built better, but that's

Joe’s got a good point here with this $500 laptop statement.

He’s also got a good point about ASUS machines. There are a couple different versions here on this laptop chooser site from Microsoft: Windows Laptop Scout. You can change the different sliders to give you a group of laptops that fit your specs. Lets you spec out something that’s tailored toward gaming if you want.

Cheers,
