Looking to get a new gaming laptop
[Stricty a personal opinion]
Gaming and laptop doesn't match.
Keyboard sucks.
Performance sucks.
Mouse sucks.
Need extra HD? -> external-> slow.
Mostly OEM OS with all kind of weird sysfiles.
Recovery CD -> sucks.
etcetera .....
[/strictly a personal opinion]
For $1500 you can get an really powerfull desktop PC.
But yeah, as I said, that's a personal opinion.
And I don't like laptops. I only use one of those if I really can't access a desktop PC. (Happens very rarely).

I mostly agree with dosraider ... do you plan to carry your laptop around with you a lot? If not, you'd be better off buying a desktop PC. And if you DO plan to carry around your laptop with you a lot you won't want to buy a gaming laptop either. Dell's current laptop in their "gaming laptops" line <i>starts</i> at 10.6 lbs (4.81 kg) ... which is about double the weight that's reasonable to carry with you.
As for the two options you've cited, the Dell One doesn't seem to be a laptop at all ... it looks like an integrated desktop PC ...

The Sony CR is not a gaming laptop. It even says in the tech specs "Type of Use: Thin-and-light" and the graphics chip is "Mobile Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator X3100" which isn't horrible but certainly isn't made for gaming.
You'd probably be better off going to the NotebookReview.com forums, they have a forum set up called "What Notebook Should I Buy?" where you post what you're looking for and people will respond with suggestions ...
