So, I've been thinking about upgrading my tower lately, and I have about $1,100 to work with. However I'll only spend around 500 or so on an upgrade, including monitor (I've already got the parts picked out). Then, while reviewing my list, I realized, I'm going to be going to college soon, and I'll be needing a laptop! I noticed that there are some awful nice notebooks on Newegg for around $1,100, with nice specs - 2.4GHz core 2 duo, 4GB RAM, GeForce 9 series cards, things like that.
So, notebook or upgrade? What do you guys think? Can anyone recommend a good notebook?
EDIT: I should be getting a job this summer, and I won't actually be going to college for a while, so I'm thinking I'll make the money back to get a laptop by the time I actually need it, so there's another factor to consider...
EDIT: Meh, bought the upgrade after further consideration
