    Dell offers BluRay for their XPS M1710 notebooks.

    The Sony Vaio AR series can be configured with the Go7600 graphics card, which can play most games out there at high/medium settings.

    My AR21S can easily handle games like GTR2, FEAR and World of Warcraft on High settings, the screen res is also a big plus for these games. Running them with high detail on a 1900x1200 looks amazing.
