I agree with Jesus, if you want games, get a desktop.

I will however point out that as Sam says, the main suck factor of that laptop from a gaming point of view is the Intel Graphics chipset.

Look for something with an nVidia DX10 (ie, 8 series) chipset. I have a 7300 Go, and in all honesty, it scores a 3.2 on Vista compared to the 7300 GT which scores 3.9.

After researching the X3100, it turns out that it's actually not that crap. It supports DirectX 10 - which means it has to meet a certain minimum spec (like Shader Model 3.0 and Hardware T&L, etc).
