Heck, get them my laptop! Seriously it would be around how much you propose. When I got this thing from Future Shop it was about $800 CAD. I was on a strict budget when I got it otherwise I obviously would have got something with a faset processor, but it can play AoE III at decent settings nad enough space provided that you don't download too much media... Though I can download a fair bit and have some room left over.

Toshiba Satellite M70[-CL1 <-- mine]
Intel Celeron M 1.6GHz w/ 512MB RAM
60 GB HDD, Combo Dual-Layer DVD writer
ATI Radeon XPRESS Video Card (1.1 Shader, 128MB default aperture)
wide-screen LCD (goes up to 1280x800)
3 USB slots, 1 PCMCIA, S-Video/standard monitor plugs, hardline modem and RJ-45
Wifi Atheros NIC
nice built-in stereo speakers
comes with WinXP Home SP2 and has a GREAT keyboard layout imho.
