I am in the market for a new computer, to replace my 10 year old desktop.

My budget is around $300(Yes, I'm aware thats very little.), and I can't build a computer for the reason of "You might break it, and we're out thousands of dollars." exact quote!

Someone told me of this laptop: http://www.toshiba.com/us/computers/lap ... C75D-B7300

Would it be any good for gaming, game development, and rendering?

Puget Systems is the best for customizing and having them assemble for you. They can even build you a laptop!

I think you missed the whole $300 dollar budget.

You never know, he could win the lottery.

I don't enter in the lottery.

If you change your mind about building. (Btw: I disasembled an old IBM computer and reassembled it without being as careful as I should've been and now my grandparents are using it as a Linux media centre...... Not saying you shouldnt be careful) Anyways, try this keeping in mind that I'm Canadian and these prices are Canadian. Also keep in mind that Windows costs about $100.

After converting CAD to USD I came up with 261.51 although it will probably be more than that.

Is the R7 240 better than the A10 APUs, when it comes to performance? I haven't really seen much about it. If not, you should revise that list with APUs in mind.

If you can squeeze in an extra $100, I've got this item up right now on eBay. Its in perfect condition, and I'll fix any issues within the next 3 years for free, as long as you'll bay the shipping to, and from my location.

If not, this guy has a decent one for less than $300.

This must be a joke.
I'm also very happy that you are getting a new laptop as I am loving the game your game but is there a reason you need a laptop?

I really like desktops, but my desktop is pretty much unusably slow.

Honestly, yeah... Just buy the laptop. $300 is pretty much nothing, but the AMD A8 APU performs pretty well. Its an excellent deal, actually. Before you buy it, make sure the build quality is good.

Also, tell your parents that its pretty difficult to break components as long as you're careful.
