I have an Asus G51VX, that I bought for $600. So far it plays everything I've ever tried at max resolution/max effects at fluent FPS.
I did have to turn down the effects to get 50 FPS when playing Mass Effect 2, and Max/max Crysis is reported to only run at 30-35FPS.
EQ is only laggy/skippy because its old and doesn't like dual core processors. I've played Warhammer online in 200ppl+ Keep seiges with spell effects maxed and still get 40-50 FPS.

Although mine never gets hot on my lap, or on the bottom, it blows some pretty toasty air out the left side. Just dont smash it up against the arm of the chair and you'll be fine.

Edit: I used to 6-box on PEQ with little performance decrease with this rig. Up to 4 you wont notice a thing.

It's not as bad as you might think. Not everyone is a videophile. I'm much more interested in smooth framerate than a big screen. It is EQ after all, and I just look at EQ on my 60' LCD flatscreen via HDMI cable anyway.
