    I have narrowed my search down to IBM's and I was wondering with 14" or 15" laptop would be best for gaming and still have a decent battery life?
    I am looking to possibly play games like Half Life2, would that be possible with the nVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M?

    just curious what your specs are? also what kind of battery life do you get for playing that, and just for normal browsing use?
