Question

I play a lot of WoW (World of Warcraft) and I am looking for a laptop so that I may still be able to play WoW, but can be in a room other than my bedroom to play it so i was wondering what laptop would you recommend I can afford around $1200.00, maybe a little more than that, But I want it to be able to play WoW with great efficiency but also able to hold other things with out crashing such as music photos and videos.

I have a 17" Macbook Pro and it runs WoW very nicely. I recommend getting 4gb's of ram though. Also, macs can run Windows if you don't want to run WoW on osx but still want the option of a mac.  

And it can definitely run with photos, videos etc. They will look GREAT!

I would recommend you to purchase a Alienware laptop. You can enjoy expanded multitasking abilities and faster speeds when taking on resource-intensive tasks such as playing next-generation games, video editing and more. Go check it online as its available for purchase and its under your budget too.
