Have been flicking around looking for a laptop and I cant seem to make up my mind so looking for opinions. So i have looked at pc specialists but im not mad on their computers because there all a bit on the chunky side and plus i dont know them or cant even play with a laptop before I buy. So to that i have looked at these laptops

Which is the newest model I have no idea there naming sucks. Im leaning towards the dabs option because its a much cleaner and not plastic because it will be in and about of bags inconstantly every hour. Any laptop I get will need 6GB+ of ram I will be VM'ing. Plus I'll be putting in an SSD also. Any ideas? Also I was thinking about waiting until the win8 launch to maybe get some more discounts on win7 machines ?

The performance should be between the DDR3-versions of Nvidias GeForce GT 650M and 640M. Therefore, current (Spring 2012) and demanding games should run fluently in medium or high settings in most cases.
