Getting a laptop fairly soon, price isn't an issue.

What i'm looking for is something that's high end, has great battery life, able to play recent games decently (though I'm not talking about ultra quality setting stuff here), reliability, a good cooling system, and all that jazz. Not very familiar with laptops unfortunately, so I don't even know where to look as far as brands and the like goes.

If price isn't an issue, I think alienware laptops may be good; I think they're built specifically for gaming. I don't know too much else about them in terms of cooling and battery life though, I just know a friend of mine is enjoying it so it may be worth looking into.

Alienwares and Dell computers are crap. I have a friend who had two, one has issues every month, and the other was an expensive paperweight. Plus their customer service is horrible and you need to PAY them to return it if it's broken.

Terrible.
