sorry for the long list but ill take any advice into consideration so i thought posting all of it would be useful.
The laptop will be used a lot for heavy projects programming, design, basically all adobe suite but also for games, and this is the reason i chose this laptop to start with, i love games but i have never been fortunate to have a decent computer for them (right now i play most of my games between 3 and 9fps...i praise the lord every time i see a miraculous 12-14fps haha), sorry for the rant.

is this the best i can make for this price or can i get better for the same price or even cheaper (dreamy me)?
i must say the keyboard is one of the reasons i blinked at this one haha

hoping for your replies and good help, thanks

also windows 7 or 8?
i have never used windows 8 so im unsure about this as well
