looking at gaming laptops

Life is too short to waste thinking about the past or worrying about the future. Live for the moment and regret nothing.
I will take pleasure in putting bullets through this computer when I get a new one. This unstable POS has permanently ruined whatever faith I had in ASUS building good products. I've even resorted to wiping it and doing a full system reset and the problems continue. Memory check revealed no RAM problems, drive scan revealed no corrupt sectors. The only conclusion I can come to is that its just junk.
Anyway, I'm looking at new gaming laptops. As cool as an Alienware 18 would be I can't justify spending that much on a computer and at the end of the day Alienware is just a Dell anyway. Its down to: Toshiba Qosmio X70-AST3G26, Origin EON17-SLX, or Maingear Nomad 17 Ultimate. The Origin and the Maingear both have better GPUs, but the Toshiba has more RAM and got the highest benchmark scores with PCMark7. Opinions?

I would build a new desktop if I could but as much as I travel a desktop isn't practical.
