What laptop should I get?

I am looking for a laptop which is best fit for playing high-end computer games. What brand should I get, and what minimum specs will I need to make sure I can run top-of-the-line games without issue? I can spend up to around $2,000. Please only respond if you are knowledgeable about computers.

I would look into the Dell Alienware, or XPS lines.

Keep in mind though that any laptop you get, no matter the parts, it will not be as good as a desktop for high end gaming.

But basically, you want to get as much ram as you can afford, a minimum of 2 gigs. Preferably a 7200 rpm hard drive, a dual core 2+ ghz chip, and the best video card you can afford, at least 256, but more likely 512 megs of ram.
