I'm looking into a budget laptop, any thoughts on the X300? I need it for
entertainment while im deployed in Iraq. I'm looking at an Inspiron 9300
through the BX that can be customized, base price is $890 with a 64MB X300,
128MB is an extra $100, 256MB GeForce Go 6800 is an extra $200. I'm thinking
I'll mainly pay slower strategy stuff like Rome Total War and Sim City 4,
don't know if I'll bother with any FPS since its a laptop, I've never tried
it but it seems like a fast paced game could be a pain to play with that
little keyboard.

As long as you have a mouse, a FPS game wont be a problem. And yes, then the
x300 will be a bit slow...

I have a Compaq now, with a mobile x600. I'd say this is the minimum to play
the more recent games.
