Said it all. My Alienware desktop has served me well for 3 years, still keeping up with the times. The laptops are a tad more expensive, but they are only beat by the EXTREMELY expensive Asus laptop models.
For $500, you'd be better off building one, though. I wouldn't say "Get an old computer and upgrade it" as much as I would say "Let a professional build you one to your specs with your options from the ground up". Doing this, you can get an entry-level gaming computer for 5 hun, a great starter.
Laptops are complicated, though. Most laptops would be more expensive to upgrade than to build a new one. As I said, a pro can build you one that is pretty decent for $500, but it may be more for laptops. The M11x is amazing for it's price, so I'd say you're pretty good getting one of those for a simple, no headaches laptop.
PS: (Davy, the cheapest ones will let you be at Abassa Darkhart with graphics on high and little lag if your Internet is good.)
