Laptops

So I know this isn't pregnancy/cycle related, but I want some opinions on laptops. I want to get one because I love the portability, but the last one I had turned out to be really shitty, even Netflix ran really slow. On my desktop, I play a few games (Don't Starve, Terraria, Starbound, Payday, Hearthstone, Minecraft, etc.) and then I do stuff like basic research, watch tv, browse social media, etc. I was just wondering if any of you do the same thing on your laptop, what games run good on yours, which laptop you have, pros and cons, etc., and your overall opinion. Thanks in advance!
