is it a nice laptop for its price? i found one for 617.00 on a site and i might buy it but i was just wondering if it could handle lfs. not lfs everyday just like on trips?

Don't go for it.

Don't ever choose a laptop with shared video memory .

lol, don't get that, you can buy someting a LOT LOT LOT better which will run LFS at over 60fps, for around that price

well is there a lappy for $650.00 that can run lfs better that 50 fps?

That may be your best bet. Dedicated 7600 is what may give you the 50FPS, but is a bit over $650.

yes, that one with the 7600 will give you over 100fps all the time, trust me!

any others with thoses specs thats cheaper

I thought Gateway went out of production?

nope its still going but i heard it sucks
