Im with you up to the word 'celeron' .

Try and get a standard pentium or an Athlon chip (although AMD chips dont work too well in laptops, they have higher power drain and emit more heat) since the celerons (aside from the 1.7Ghz celeron) have the L2 cache crippled and wont play games as well as they should.
