Wanted to say a belated thank you to everyone. I don't think a thinkpad is the right tool for htis particular job, though I've had only thinkpads myself for the last little while. our experience has been that even recent T-series laptops with pretty decent integrated intel graphics are just a little slow for adequate gameplay. It looks like there are quite a few used gaming laptops hovering around the $500 mark on Craigslist:

And that seems a pretty good option for now!
My experience also says thinkpads can handle being brought places, while many gaming laptops break very easily due to cheap crappy screen hinges and such. Very annoying. -- Len Sorensen
