Red face Counter Strike Source Laptop

Hi

Basically I was wondering if anyone could recommend a laptop that will run counter strike source smoothly, for under £500, preferably around £400?

This is the only requirement I have for the laptop as I won't be playing any other games on it besides CSS, Planescape Torment, The Longest Journey...

Thanks

The laptop spec you need is GMA X4100, 2GB RAM, 2.0GHz C2D.

X4100 based laptops is the cheapest will run those games just fine. But i'm don't know the exact price in the UK.

Sorry I forgot something, just a quick reminder X4100 is abit old, see if you can get a laptop with X4500HD because is alot more faster but ofcouse is slightly pricy since the mainboard and chipset is latest release.
