I know it’s a bit unrelevant, but I will use it for gaming ::).
So I am looking for a new laptop, since my current one is very outdated. Still running on Intel core 2 Duo @ 2.0 GHz. The laptop I want must be suitable for programming and gaming, and has to be portable. Should be able to run modern games (like the new Battlefield coming up) at high/ultra settings.
