There is no such thing as a specific system to cover all your needs. A graphics card designed for Autocad is not going to be the same one designed for games. The fact that you want to allow your kids to play with it and run a business is a dangerous venture. That said....





If you want to play the ';newest games';, You'll want a DirectX10 card, a minimum of 2GB of RAM, a large drive (320GB as a minimum, if not dual drives), and a processor at around 2.2Ghz or better so that you have support for a 64bit OS later. Wireless N should be a requirement if you are doing lots of downloads.





If you want a laptop that covers all your needs, you should be getting two laptops. One for your business needs and one for play in my professional opinion. The moment your system crashes cause your kids downloaded some bogus game is the time when you will have made the biggest mistake.





You should also not be asking for advice on a forum like this. You should get advice from a professional in the industry instead. PCWorld, Tom's Hardware, PC Magazine, and CNET (as mentioned) are good places to look for reviews.Were can i find list showing top 10 laptops, with reviews and advice?
