I'm looking into a gaming/entertainment desktop at $1,000 max. I've lost my job too and had to pay for college tuition. Best Buy seems to have an Asus laptop with a GTX260M for $1,000. Due to recent flooding and high unemployment rate, I had to seek out jobs more.

That BB Asus is fine. It runs a little hot. But for the price can't do much better.

The reason I want a good entertainment/gaming laptop is that I play TF2 and watch Blu-ray movies, but my current laptop is too weak to handle Blu-ray movies properly.
