A gaming laptop is only if the desktop part is 100% impossible. Chiming in to say that "Gaming Laptop" doesn't necessarily need to mean a $1200+ Alienware affair with a desktop-sized graphics card inside a laptop casing. I picked up a Sony VAIO CW with an i5, 4Gigs DDR3 RAM and a GT330m graphics card(able to Mass Effect 2 on high settings, no AA at 1600x900) all for ~$900. It's 14in wide, a perfect size for me to not only carry to school and back but also look at for extended amounts of time when gaming/working. The laptop didn't come with any "GAMING" stickers on it, nor was intended to be a gaming laptop, but it serves my frequent gaming needs. Basically, some sort of decent dedicated option might be all you want/need until you need to replace your laptop or it dies on you. Taking this into consideration and looking for good deals on laptops might allow you to have a laptop that will fulfill both your gaming and working needs, even if it isn't branded a "gaming" laptop. Derail aside, a great OP. Maybe add some games that fall into the "casual" genre like Bejeweled? Even if the way people play Bejeweled make it anything but casual...
