My boss is looking to buy a laptop soon (bouses came out this week). What he wants is something for a long airplane flight to Asia so he can watch DVDs and some 3-D gaming (not high end titles, but still 3-D). I wish I was knowledgable about laptops to give him better advice, so I wanted to start a thread to help him and to link him to it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. TIA.

Dell is having a deall on an inspiron 9400...dual core, great HDD space and 1 gig of memory. Just add a 7900GS into it and a grand total of 1,200. Not a bad price on SMB

Well, he went and bought hisself an HP AM2 (whatever the notebook equivalent is). I haven't seen it yet, but he seems really happy with it (aside from it causing his routed net to fail here and there, which he's working on). Thanks for everyone's advice.
