Laptop Advice
I am looking to replace my 6 year old laptop. I don't do much gaming...maybe the occasional sport game or simulation game like SimCity. What should I be looking for in terms of speed to be able to do these on a laptop?
Thanks.

You may want to consider online websites like tigerdirect.com and newegg.com They have a wide selection for under $800

What's the going price on those? OP said he is working with an $800 budget.
This one on tigerdirect might be worth a look at $679 (built for speed and gaming)

Too much for his budget, but I would recommend it anyways.
