I'm sorry if you get a lot of these types of threads, but here is my situation. I need to get a laptop, and I want it to run emulators like PCSX2 and Dolphin (I specifically want to play Mario Galaxy and Mario Galaxy 2). From what I understand, these emulating programs are very CPU intensive. I'm trying to keep my laptop sub $900. What are some good options?
Here's two I'm not sure about...

or
But it appears the HP has OpenGl and Switchable Graphics problems by looking at the reviews.
Will I need to be careful of any overheating problems that might damage the laptop by running Dolphin?
Another question I have is about turning my Wii and Gamecube games into .iso files (or whatever they need to be.) I believe I need a certain specific DVD drive to do this correct? Are there any cheap, external drives that would do the trick or would my new laptop be able to do it?
Thanks!
