So I'm looking to but a notebook.

I want it to support my mapping and my wife's gaming needs, so a decent video card is a must, and I want a 15.5"+ screen at 1680x1050 (I think that is the standard widescreen resolution)

I'll live with Windows 7 - I want to use GIMP still, so note sure if I want 64bit as I hear there are issues under windows.

Ideally this will be <$1000CDN.

Any suggestions? The choices are daunting...
