laptop suggestions

well im back every one and this time looking for a new laptop. so i was hopeing you all could help me make a decision. i have about $1600 u.s to spend on it. there is a little extra money but i plan on buying a few extra batteries due to the fact that it will be about 15 hours inbetween power points.

in this laptop i am looking for its ability to play games WOW on maxed settings, other games like oblivion are fine on medium. so maybe a 7900 go ?? . a 17" wide screen. and over 1 gig of ram.

i hope you can help me out in my decision, and thank you for your time.

You can use this site to search thru all the laptops. The only one that i could find that meets ur specifications is the Dell. Otherwise a 7900 cost 2000$+

i was thinking about it abit today at work. and realy came to the conclusion that a 6800 can play wow at max and otehrs at medium so any thing above that is more then enough. so 7600 would be awsome. thank you for the suggestions carl. does any one know if dell has any good coupons out for laptops? they normaly do tho i just cant find any.
