    If you're looking for a laptop that can run ArmA2 or Carrier Command: Gaea Mission that laptop would be a good choice based solely on the hardware. I'm not a huge fan of the bloatware that comes on HP laptops though.

    Sager is a great choice too.

    I spotted you bolded Carrier Command, thought you was hinting at something then realised of how much a newbie mistake I made. Completely wrong bored to be post this in -_-.

    I feel like a ... something i'm not going to say. Thanks for the link to Sager Laptops, will check them out =].

    Encrypted_God, thanks for the information. As for playing on my mates Vaio, he wont let me near it :P. He also wont tell me the Model -_-.

    I personally think the laptop will struggle with it (ArmA) even on low settings. But some users that have a PC even struggles with the issue. As for most laptops, they are limited and highly proprietary. Meaning; you will have limited or no room for upgrade. But...it all depends on the user. The same thing goes for Bundled PC's (PC's bought off the shelf).

    If the user is intending on gaming on the PC for most of the time then (I think) the only way to go is build your own. Or better yet, get the laptop for your general usage and build yourself a nice gaming rig. That's what I do as my main rig (in my sig) really sucks of the juice. But now we're talking about money.

    Yeah I would love to build myself a gaming rig, but unfortunately that is not an option for me, it does have to be a Laptop. My mate tells me he runs Arma 2 on medium-low settings on his Vaio. I'm not looking at running it on the highest settings, low and medium are fine enough for me I just want my Arma Fix XD.
