I like to play games on my PC. Obviously, I convince everyone else that it's for work, rather than the internet and games, but it's a fact that there are some fairly lovely PC games out there (it helps if you also have a fairly stable PC system as well, mine has never caused any problems with compatibility)
What I would like, though, is to have a laptop. Now, most people would consider a laptop a really good idea for working outside of the home or office. Word processing and spreadsheets can be done in nicer surrounding than your usually drab office, you can even use the internet if you have the right connections. But me? I want portable PC games. That's why I yern for a laptop. Red Alert, Star Trek Elite Forces, all my emulators, all within my grasp when I'm away from home. That would be a dream come true.
Who cares about battery life? Just plug it in a mains socket when no-ones looking and use the battery when you're out of reach of electricity. TFT colour screens and all the power of a PC in one handy little machine, it will be mine, oh yes it will be mine!

Yep! Didn't want to get caught with those.

A couple of months ago I was given a laptop for 12 weeks for work.
I put my Sega Master System emulator on it, allowing me to play games when I went on a 2 day course.
Unfortunately I had to give it back.
