The BEST gaming laptop manufacturers?

My current Gateway POS (Piece Of &*@$) laptop cost around 1,100 dollars. It was a good laptop for exactly 2 FREAKING WEEKS!!! After that everything went to pieces. GPU overheated to 100 C, HORRIBLE FPS, slow CPU, dead pixels, all that junk. Not surprised becuase the other day the laptop went 404 (non existant) from the main page(in only 5 months WOW) and Gateway refuses to tell me why. I was totally ripped off and their tech support (wholly Indian and illetarate) won't do a darn thing about it. Anyways, sorry to totally go on about my rage rant but my main reason is this...

What is the BEST gaming laptop company in terms of quality, reliability, and customer care? I'm hoping to sell my Gateway POS (doubt anyone will buy it though) and save up money until I can get a different one. I am just asking about what you guys would recommend for a company to buy a gaming laptop from. Thanks!

I'm not super smart on what the best laptop brands, so I'm mostly going on experience/feedback here.

Vaio + Toshiba are quality laptops.

Dell + Asus are decent quality and price.

HPs are a popular choice - but every HP laptop I come across is unusually hot, so I don't prefer them.

Acer I haven't had much experience with, but I hear are kinda cheap.

Regardless of what your choice is, I'd get a laptop fan to max your performance.

I see Asus recommended a lot as well and rarely hear any issues. A lot of issues are user error and/or have no clue what they're doing.

The G73jh looks like your best bet for gaming on a Laptop.

Just don't ever expect a gaming laptop to be the same performance as a gaming PC and you'll be fine. 8)
