Post gaming laptop

well i got my game desktop

now i'd like a game capable laptop. It will generally be used for gaming, but also simple tasks such as schoolwork. I don't really know the capabilities of mobile graphic solutions, but i want to be able to play crysis, CoD5 and other modern games.

furthermore i'd like a 17'' screen or bigger because i'll watch movies on it too. i guess it's wise to buy something with a screen that can handle 1920x1200 resolution i think.

but hey, you guys are the best in pc stuff, so i'll trust you'll post some very very good links to very very good laptops.

thx in advance

EDIT: i have about 1800$ to spend

I'm not sure you can even get a laptop that will play Crysis (at any usable setting) for only $1800

Here's a link to some graphics info. Note that the "high end" ones are usually "SLI" (2 GPUs)

i'll probably get this: http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/m...&s=NNB-627&v=1 with the T9300, 320gb @7200rpm, vista premium, office home and student

what is the desktop equivelant of the 8800m gtx? (just to compare)
