Laptop capable of running Bad Company 2 (medium settings) under £800?

As title really.

I'm after a laptop that will run BC2 on medium settings with a decent (playable) frame rate. Someone mentioned Acer's Aspire 5942G in a similar thread but I've not recognised any of the retailers selling it for under £800 and I've no intention of spending that much money on eBay, I just don't trust it.

What would you say is the most powerful gaming laptop available for under £800?

Been looking at the MSI GX660. A little over my budget but the performance of the ATI HD 5870 (if Notebook Check is right) should make up for that.

Any other laptops I should be looking at?

What are the rules about discussing Dell laptops on this forum? If it's not allowed I apologise for the following:

I've just seen what appears to be a pretty good deal (I'm not ready to buy though) on an XPS 17:

Good value for money?

Thanks, marktime.

I'm just trying to get an idea of what constitutes a good deal on an XPS so that when I am ready to buy I'll be able to do so right away without worrying about getting ripped off or missing out on a bargain due to procrastination.
