Guys I could do with your help. Maybe its a little cheeky to join a forum and dive in with questions on my first post, even more cheeky as I've posted the same question on another forum, please forgive me if it is 
Going to spend a fair bit of money on a laptop (probably about £2K) Ideally I want a good "all rounder" but probably would focus more on gaming and multimedia. Have searched around for a bit and have found a few I like but each has its own drawbacks :-
Alienware Aurora 9700 upgraded to :- quicker hard drive, both graphics cards, more memory, quickest chip - works out at about £2100
BUT it has an AMD chip....
Then we have the shiny new Vaio ...AR31s also about 2000, possible to get it cheaper maybe,good spec, bluray and it's Sony - so surely that counts for something?
BUT its has slow hard drives and isnt possible to upgrade them and also its a lot more money for a lower spec than the alienware.
Then we have the Toshiba (excuse the spelling) qousimo, good spec again, a bit cheaper
BUT its HD-DVD and surely Bluray will be the winner in that market, leaving me with a obsolete drive...
There are more I've looked at, but those are the three I like mose
Am I being nit picky with my comments? Personally I like the alienware he best but the chip concerns me...
Help guys - get those big juicy brains out! What do you guys think?
Thanks
