Default Looking for a Laptop Right for me.
Am mostly using for school, and a little for entertainment. I do plan on playing Spore so that is the game that I would like to have descent specs for. The min qualification for it is

Hard Drive Space : 6 GB
Operating System : Windows XP/Vista
Processor : 2.0 GHz P4 processor or equivalent
RAM : 768 MB RAM
Video Card : A 128 MB Video Card, with support for Pixel Shader 2.0

These are some pretty modest reqs' (atleast I think so) and I want to keep the budget around 1k

Don't you mean 60GB hard drive, not 6GB?

^^ If you want something that looks nicer (don't see the point) just hit up newegg laptops/notebooks section and filter the search to 750-1000$ just to make sure that the one you want. ^^

good luck.
