Wow, you guys are more helpful than I expected. Well my budget is £950, any more than that is a definate no. But any suggested on better laptops would be welcome.
EDIT: Actually I just found this TOSHIBA A100-920 Laptop from PC World - Buy the latest TOSHIBA entertainment laptops including the TOSHIBA A100-920.. Could someone take a look and tell me if it is better than the alienware. It has all higher specs but £150 cheaper, there must be something bad about it? Like it has 256mb graphics (alienware has 128), 100gb storage (alienware has 60!), double the ram of the alienware, same processor speed.
Eugh this is confusing i dunno what to buy....

Renvaar, the alienware computers are more "elite" name branded.

Toshiba's are reknowned for their business products but i can vouch for them as i've done lots and lots and lots of work with their laptops

Their after sales support is top notch as well.
I'd go with the toshiba

That Toshiba definitely looks better for playing games, you won't be able to play games as well on the alienware. You will struggle with the low amount of RAM it has and Video Memory.
