My son is currently studying I.T. and I'd like to get him a good reasonably priced gaming laptop that is thin and light without compromise to performance. I sure there are knowledgeable people out here that have compared all the 15-inch and 17-inch gaming laptops and can provide honest insight and valuable advice.
Are there any USA vendors that are known to provide such gear at cutting-edge prices ? I would need to but a gaming laptop, some good games (Please suggest), gaming hardware (Mouse, controllers) and Microsoft Office for Students. He is a student at a reputable university and I'm hoping that he can get a good student discount from the various hardware and software vendors.
Any advice from knowledgeable fellow forum members and gaming gurus will be appreciated. I quite like these reviews on the AnandTech site:-

The Razer laptop seems to be very nice in terms of being thin, light weight and high performance. The price is steep at $2,000 but if it's a nice machine, I'll consider it.
The Asus Rog series seems to be quite popular - any reason for that ?
