Does the i7 also use hyper-threading? Because thats what tanked my score, apparently. Ah, yes. The benchmark was with the Alpha engine apparently and they're fixing all of the optimization issues!

I'm sure I will be plenty distracted

My desktop just got 1657 on high resolution.... i7 2.8 GHz 6gb DDR3 Corsair Nvidia 285GTX That seems like a rather low score.

Hey everyone, This coming spring I will be studying abroad in Jerusalem (how awesome is that??) and I would still like to have a nice machine on which to play Final Fantasy. Right now I have a very nice desktop that I put together for around $1,400 last summer and a three year old Dell XPS M1330... Obviously I will not be able to bring my desktop and I will be needing more power than my little XPS. Do you guys have any suggestions for me? Would it be worth the money to buy a gaming latop? Do you have any experience with Alienware, Voodoo, etc? Thanks! -Narelius (Gavriel)
