Need to purchase a laptop...

Hey hey!

Ok, I need to buy a new laptop within the next few days. I don't have many requirements. Pretty much the only two things I need to worry about is the laptop being up $1,000 and to make sure it doesn't have a Intel graphics chip set. (HDMI port would also be nice)

The laptop would be used for the following:
  1. Gaming (old games, maybe SC2?)
  2. Programming in XNA
  3. Browsing the internet

I have been looking at one laptop found at best buy.

Should I stick with this one or should I get something a bit more powerful? I will end up building a PC for gaming in a few months, so this is mostly to hold me over until then.

    and the new Gateway NV series with Core i5 and the ATI Mobility Radeon 5650 at their site. There are a few different designs and go for 799.99 US dollars.
