Hi I was wondering, where is a good place to buy an affordable custom made laptop that doesn't limit me to the hardware I can put together. Like Hp does that, I can;t get an Athlon with and ATI at HP, and I cant pair the Athlon I want with an ATI 128MB anywhere. So if anyone can make some suggestions I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

If I understand your question correctly it sounds like you want to install a better graphics card into a laptop. Unfortunately, this isn't possible for a number of reasons. All laptops use integrated graphics. This is for space, power and heat limitations. Same goes for all component inside. All are integrated. Weight, size, battery life are all concerns with laptops.
