I'm tired of finding that every gaming laptop I look at is all gimmick and no substance. Sure, it may have good hardware on the inside, but the price is doubled because it's metallic orange, has wings, is four feet thick, and has enough LEDs to be seen from orbit.
The thing is that this will be a desktop replacement as I will be losing my home office space once the wife and I have a kid.
I just want a plain laptop that will let me play games.

I just want a plain laptop that will let me play games.
My requirements:
- a minimum 16" wide-screen display
- GPU good enough to play Team Fortress 2 at a good clip with moderate AA and AF settings
- solid-feeling keyboard with a number pad (I seem to like HP's layout most)
- simple color scheme
- Good processor that I won't be complaining about in a couple years (preferably AMD, but I can suck it up and get something from Chipzilla)
- minimum 4 gigs of RAM
- minimum 500 gig HD
- BluRay
- HDMI output
- 64-bit Vista Home Premium (with upgrade to Windows 7)
