I am having trouble deciding which type of laptop I get. Most laptops on the market are currently advertised as “Multimedia machines” or “gaming machines.” I wanted to have a laptop which will be able to perform both efficiently. I will be using the laptop mostly for watching videos, downloading and listening to music and graphic design. I will also be using the laptop in college so I will be carrying it everywhere but I have already decided that a 17 in notebook will be fine. I wont really be gaming too much on the laptop but I do occasionally play 1 game every two months. The games which I usually play usually do not require high-end hardware (last games I played on PC was GTA San Andreas or Hitman Blood Money).
What I am unsure about is about what laptop to get. The laptops I have looked at either had a nvidia geforce go 7600 or ATI Radeon X1800. I wanted to know which is better
The laptops I have looked at are the HP Pavilion dv9000t, Alienware Area-51 m5790, Dell Inspiron E1705 and Toshiba Qosmio G35-660.

Is the ATI Radeon X1800 better than the Nvidia Geforce Go 7600?
Which laptop is a better value?
How much faster is the Alienware’s processor (7600T) than the HP’s?
Which laptop should be a better overall laptop considering multimedia and gaming?
Thank you.
