    I usually play the sims 2, and i want to get Age of empires 3, is the acer ferrari good on games, or is there a better choice, like the dell xps m170? Price is no greater than $4000 would be nice.

    It's not as good on games as the XPS (X700 vs. 7800 GTX), but it's much more portable. It only costs $2000.

    It's awesome, but nowhere as super great as the XPS Gen2 and Godly as the M170...

    But its an awesome laptop
