I'm thinking about buying a laptop soon(going to college), but I have some questions about playing games on them. If I don't think playing games on a laptop would be enjoyable or even possible, I will buy a cheap one and save some money. Thanks for any input.
-Is is difficult/annoying to play games with small laptop keyboards and screens?
-Is it easier to use a USB or wireless mouse for games? Can you buy a standard PC keyboard and attach it to a laptop?
-Is it possible to upgrade or build a laptop? I can't find many laptop parts for sale at newegg or other places, so it doesn't seem like a common thing to do.
-What are some of the best affordable laptops for gaming? I'm not talking about laptops made by Alienware or some other expensive high end manufacturer, I'm just looking for something with reasonable performance and price. Its not like I'm planning to play Doom 3 on a laptop. So far I've looked at offers from Dell, Compaq, and Hp. Any other manufacturers that I should consider? Compaq has a laptop(R3000Z model) with the Athlon 64, and HP offers the only laptop(ZD700 model) I've seen with a 128MB video card aside from the very expensive high end laptops. The prices and performance seems reasonable, know anything about these models?
