Stereo bluetooth (preferably by Nokia) w/ price range of $100
Laptop (for a gamer) w/ price range of $1000

Sorry, but if you want a high-end gaming laptop, you're going to need a wad more cash to burn. Otherwise, expect a mid-level laptop with $800 (which doesn't do all that bad with gaming so as long as it's got a dedicated graphics chip).

$100 can get you some decently-sized external hard drives. Good brands are Western Digital and Seagate.

External HDD help:

Newegg.com - Western Digital Passport WDXMS1200TN 120GB 5400 RPM USB 2.0 External Hard Drive - Retail

Or if you want to go up a few bucks, which is worth it try this:

Newegg.com - Fantom Titanium-II TFD500U16 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache USB 2.0 External Hard Drive - Retail

Not even a good gaming desktop would be worth $800.00 if you had about $1,200.00 for a laptop, it would be a totally different story. Laptops are more expensive than desktops, plus customizing a desktop is more cheaper & worth it for gaming.

Not sure what games you'll be playing on it, but I'm sure this could be the best you can get for a grand:

Dellâ„¢ XPS M1210

Also are you wanting Blutooth headsets/headphones or what?

Specs and whatnot please, I might be interested...

As for the laptop, it would be helpful to know what kind of games you're planning on running. You might be able to get away with an $800 laptop, or then again, you might need something for a bit more.
