  There's always Alienware lap tops. Alienware laptops are purely made for gaming, and preform very nice. As for any other types. Just try and find one that comes pre-built with a graphics card. It is very important that you get a lap top with a graphics card. 

  If you don't like either of these options, you can always make your own computer. It's much cheaper than buying one off the shelf.

  Well sir I use a laptop for my gaming. I know next to nothing about computers,but I can tell you what I use. I use a Toshiba Satellite laptop. And thus far have had absolutely NO problems with it. I got this computer just under a year ago. Again I don't know much about computers so I may not of been very useful, but I do know of a couple others players on here that also have a Toshiba. Oh and this has a Intel Core i3 Processor. I could get more info on it if you would like. Hope this helps ya at least a little bit. Take care and good luck.

  Totally agree with yoda,I have a 4 year old toshiba satellite  A -205  with only 1 mb ram and 1.66 ghz  dual  core  and rarely have any swing meter glitches or other problems.havent tried other brands but toshiba brand seems very reliable,cost a little more than other brands but seems well worth it.

  Dell do good laptops at reasonable prices and you can customize them to suit.

  any new computer will be fine; for an online game it's all about your Internet speed

  Processor, graphics card and ram are the most important, internet speed has absolutely no effect.  I know having used a HORRIBLE clearwire connection for a few months, would often times be as slow as .15 megs and meter was still flawless on my pretty decent laptop.  Look for an i7 ideally (i5 should suffice if you're on a budget) and a dedicated graphics card.

  I'll take your word for it, but it makes no sense
