If it was a PC this wouldn't be a problem, but the graphics on board a laptop are integrated, so you won't be able to upgrade the graphics card alone at a later date. There's very little you can easily upgrade on a laptop, which is why I would always recommend buying a PC if you can help it.

madmonkey is indeed right. Laptops are pretty much as they are. Harddrives and DVD/CD drivers are more often replacable, but that's most times where it stop. So if you're going for a good graphics card, you should buy that with a new laptop at once.
