Reviews say the Dell XPS M1730 is a fantastic laptop for 3D gaming. It includes an Nvidia video card in its base configuration, and can be customized to use up to two cards. All configuration options include 2.4 to 2.8 GHz Penryn processors, which Dell advertises can be overclocked. Reviewers praise the glossy 1920 x 1200-pixel 17-inch widescreen display. That can be a disadvantage for office work (where some people prefer a non-widescreen display that isn't as glossy), but otherwise this laptop can handle any task. The M1730 laptop is not very portable, since it weighs 11 pounds. It comes in red or blue.
