Are you familiar with EVE Online? If so, do you have an opinion on the sort of specs you’d like to see in a laptop that plays it? (Not interested in other games).
What are you doing in Eve? 0.0 alliance warfare is going to take up a lot more computing power than Mining in empire.
I actually have been playing EVE Online for about the past month, and it runs fine on my four-year-old machine, an Athlon XP 2500 with 1 GB of RAM and a Geforce 6600GT video card. Any reasonably powerful modern laptop with a decent video setup should be able to run it well. It’s an older game and still looks good, but doesn’t seem all that graphically demanding.

EVE online is an awesome game. Don’t know what you’d have to have for a laptop to run it tho. You might check out their forums at www.eve-online.com if you haven’t yet. Folks there are pretty helpful.
