Personally, I would probably only go with Asus, lenovo, or possibly Acer (I've heard they have really come around in recent years).
If you want something to play new games on decently, you are looking at spending around $1000. I spent about $1200 2-3 years ago to get my Asus Core 2 Duo laptop with an Nvidia 9650GT (?) with 1GB of dedicated memory. I can still load up any new game and play it with medium details. A purpose of this laptop was to play Oblivion and heavy photo editting. This laptop still gets used everyday and we've had minimal issues with it. Mainly just an occasional virus or bad driver (I have OCD when it comes to drivers and firmware). This one isn't bad: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834220865 It would play EQ with no problem and many new games as long as you don't play them will full details. | ||

When I was doing VMs the one thing I could never have enough of was ram. Even running VMs on a single core prescott wasn't that bad if you had enough ram.
If you are buying a laptop for VMing I would base it almost entirely on the amount of ram it has or can support. Assuming you aren't using the VMs to do any CPU intensive tasks like encoding at least. | ||

Can't run EQ on that, but you can run D & D edition 4!
