I'm looking for a laptop for under $1,000 that will smoothly play Minecraft and run iTunes. The problem is I know nothing about computers.

I could possibly be interested in a desktop also, depending on the price and size.

Suggestions please!

Thanks!

For that budget you can get a pretty good laptop, but you can get a much better desktop. If you don't care about moving the thing around and want a bit more reliability and speed, I'd go with a desktop.

For a laptop, something like this would be great for mid range games http://www.xoticpc.com/sager-np5652-clevo-w650rc-p-8655.html
