    Will this be able to run Battlefield 2, Half-life 2, Counter-Strike Source, and forgive me if this is a really dumb question, Crysis? I know not alot/ no people have this yet, but i was just woundering based on the specs you've read. Also what's the cheapest place to get this, ExcaliberPC.com has been the lowest that I can find so far.

    Crysis: Mid-High; 40ish FPS (probably)
    All the others: High; at least 35 FPS.

    They are the only ones I could find where you can customize the G1s...I bet there are some other sites though.

    I'm strongly considering buying a G1s so I went to best buy today to see a G1p and I noticed that it took a lot of force to push the left and right mousebuttons on the touchpad. Does anyone know if this is typical or whether I should expect this on the G1s?

    when they say "Non-Refundable, Support/Exchange From Manufacturer" does that mean that if you have a problem then with the notebook then they won't change it or what?

    It comes with a mouse, so if you're gaming that shouldn't be a problem.
