Dell, HP, Toshiba, Acer and Mac are the top ones.
Get one you like and has a GOOD Warranty (three years). Find out about their repair policy.
Make sure you get at least 1GB RAM, 80GB or bigger Hard Drive.
For gaming - a very good video card with it's own Memory on board, 256MB minimum.

Good strong battery that lasts at least 3 hours.

Well I work in an organization that buys hundreds of Dell laptops and we constantly have hard drive failures and other issues.
When I was looking into getting a home laptop, and even though get a discount through Dell, went with an HP instead.
Pricing for comparitive machine was better for the options, more ram, bigger hdd, bigger display, for the same price.
Within the first 6 months the laptop needed to have the system board replaced, to me that was a strong mark against HP, but the customer service, and replacement time was so quick, I recently went back to HP to buy another new machine, this time a desktop.
I'd say HP.

Well for online gaming anything is good.
MAC all the way. You won't get viruses from those online game sites. AND you can run window using bootcamp if you needed to.
