Basically any notebook will run it as long as you get a non-Intel-Extreme integrated. Go with a Radeon 7000, 9100, 9200, 9600 or GeForceGo 440, 5200, 5600? 5700. Now, as far as best bang for the buck, eMachines M681x. Uses Athlon 64, Radeon 9600 64MB, 60-80GB, CDRW or DVDRW, 15.4", wireless. The CDRW/60GB version can be had in retail stores for ~$1250 after rebate. Only downside is slightly heavy (I think like 8-9lbs) and mediocre batt life (2-3hrs) If you have other specific needs of the machine, please write back.
