For Mac lovers, you should look for the Apple MacBook Pro – and remember you can also run Windows to play!
In addition, one of the major drawbacks of going with any gaming laptop (rather than a PC) is that there is very little room for expansion … you need a system that can be easily updated, mainly because the moment you buy it, the system will probably be out of date. This is a bit exaggerated, but it is always a good idea to go with a game system that you can easily upgrade when the need arises or as you can afford it.
In addition, some players do not like Vista as operating system for the game and quickly switch back to Windows XP. This is simply done, however some current laptops / PCs do not accept XP so check this before you buy your machine.
