    I am looking at a few laptops, and one of them is the HP TouchSmart tx2z series. I am wondering if this laptop will be able to handle games such as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, and Crysis. I will be using this laptop for internet browsing and word processing, also. If this laptop cannot perform well with the games listed above, what laptop do you think I should get? I am looking for AMD. A list of the HP TouchSmart tx2z series customized by me is listed below, so you can see for yourself.

    Check out this thread on tabletpcreview. People have posted their experiences gaming on the tx2500 which shares the same platform as the tx2z.
