i did consider getting a desktop, but it's been years since i used a desktop, frankly i prefer laptops, so i'll be getting this one, what do you think?

Toshiba Satellite A200-10W
-Intel core 2 Duo Processor T7200
(2.0 GHz, 667 MHz FSB, 4 MB cache),
-Intel wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN network connection
-Intel 965PM Express chipset
Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium Edition
200GB HDD
1,024 MB DDR2 RAM
NVIDIA GrForce Go7300 MB VRAM

is this good for gaming?

Also note that I can't get a pc online because of electricity diffrences.

more ram, I hear vista needs a gig just to perform normal functions.
I had a good experience with a dell as a gaming machine. I had a good video card and 512 ram, about 4 years ago. It can still play some newer games on slightly lower settings.

Well, it depends if you are going for the newest new gams like noobs (well, all of them aren't that bad, but playing a game just because it is new...) or play those
old classic games full of memories. 🙂 I myself have one like that, but I mainly play something like Warcraft randomly. I just watch anime, read manga and of course do this.

well...i could be considered a noob in pc gaming, but i do pay console games alot! i play, ps3, xbox360, wii (by the way i hate Xbox360 🤢 it just keeps getting trashy stuff)
The main reason i want to start pc gaming is Oblivion, i played on Xbox 360 before which resulted on throwing the Xbox into the trash bin, do you know about the problem? or so they call it the red eye of death or somethin XD then i bought another Xbox 🤢 i dare not try playing oblivion on either ps3 or xbox again, so i'll just play it on pc, and try other pc games while at it 🙂

@drunkdecoy i thought about buying a dell but for some reason everytime i mention a dell to anybody they go off screaming >.> ?! some people say it's horrible some other say it's perfect....i don't understand....so i think i'll stay on the safe side with the nice toshiba i mentioned in my last post. Thanks for your suggestions! it was very educational for a novice in pc gaming like me.

Well ill put it this way, iam a senior in Software Infomation Systems at my college and in lots of my classes there will be like 15 laptops, non are them are Toshibas that ive noticed.

Dont just take my word for it though go to computer review websites like Cnet or something and check out their thoughts on differnt laptops.
