Want to buy a new laptop

I have a Mac right now, it's functioning but it fucking sucks and I actually want to play games in my spare time, so I'm hoping to get a Windows machine. Was thinking of this machine:

Click "Summary Review" for the specs, otherwise here they are:

Lenovo IdeaPad Y530 - 40512RU

Processor: Intel® Pentium® Dual Core T3200 processor ( 2GHz 667MHz 1MB )
Operating system: Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium
Display type: 15.4 WXGA TFT with integrated camera LCD Glossy 1280x800
System graphics: Intel Integrated Graphics X4500
Total memory: 2 GB PC3-8500 DDR3 SDRAM 1066MHz
Hard drive: 250GB 5400

For 700 dollars that looks like a really solid machine, and I've heard great things about Lenovo. I'm not interested in buying a desktop. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to keep the price below 1,000 if that's possible, preferably 850 or less.
