Now days an $800 laptop can handle games easily.

I remember a few years ago, I payed $1500 for a laptop with a 1.6 GHz Core 2 Duo and GMA 945. Now days that's a POS computer, but back then it was badass. Now that computer would go for about $300. The Atom netbooks are actually just as good (maybe even better, I don't know how the smaller die but smaller cache really affect performance without actually looking at benchmarks)

Of course then, the Core 2 Duo I got was like the i7 960 is now. Much faster than anything short of the extreme series and a few Xeons. Bitch had 4 gigs of RAM too, almost unheard of at the time.

L4D is a fairly light game too.

I've been thinking about picking up one of these:

or this:

Either one would fly through pretty much any game you can throw at it.

Did you just say that your $3000 PC is now a POS?

It was $2200, and that was a year ago, not five.
I said my five year old laptop is now a POS.

On the subject, I've been thinking of upgrading. I'm thinking Xeon X3440, 5850, and 4 GB RAM. And I'll OC the f*ck out of the Xeon.
