Guess i have to go get a PS4 and play Planetside 2 with my corpmates.

Too used to XP, and I don't like the look of windows 8/10.
Small because my bag is usually full from all the textbooks I carry with me

so your trying to decide laptop or ps4?
apples and oranges.
if not... i'm confused, if your think your going to get a cheap/small laptop that runs games well for less than a ps4 costs, good luck, there will be trade offs somewhere.
size / price / performance
you can choose 2. :)
Noo, i wish for a laptop that's small... And sadly uses outdated software like XP. Price had nothing to do with it. Although, I'm not trying to spend a ton of money.
The real issue is battery life.. Nothing will be able to compare to what my current laptop has. It's old yes, but I have around 7-8 hrs of battery when full power saving, and 3-4 hrs in high performance (although it's performance is pretty poor according to today's standards)
Yes, Windows 7 is nice looking, and it's actually not too bad (my mother's laptop uses it), but my Theory was this:
"old software was written using old technology... If I put new technology with old software, the performance will have a serious improvement in all aspects since the older technology uses far less resources to run."
Like when I upgraded my ram from 1 to 2 GB. It's like a brand new computer again! Imagine using 2 GB of ram now? It's like suicide on newer computers.

You can build a tower more powerful than a ps4 for -ú500.
A laptop your gonna spend about -ú700 easy to get to ps4 quality.
Makes sense, but if I'm spending money on a computer, it better have more use than just for gaming. School, and personal use too.
No tower will be able to come along with me LOL.

Some people actually understand what I mean.
Well, I'll break it to you guys... Until my current XP laptop gives up... I won't really be moving into the new world.
Some people understand what I meant though, like XP would be "lighter" that newer windows...
One mentioned go linux + WINE.
Some say Win 7 is the end all be all; It's like XP w/ support.
Price vs performance vs size....
Pretty hard choice... I could only get 2 of the 3.
I don't like the lil tablet hybrid thingy... Plus LOL I'm a lil old fashioned and have a note book for dedicated school notes, and my Galaxy Note for quick written notes. Still, I'll take it in consideration when it's time to upgrade!
