ASUS vs. Acer <-- Click

Are these any good for running Portal and Portal 2 decently? Doesn't need to be the best, just good enough.

You're wasting money if you say "Doesn't need to be the best, just good enough.". Laptops are integrated and if one important component breaks = whole laptop breaks, and you can't update it. It might run Portal 2 with high settings at the beginning, but when its getting old, it gets more slower and slower and since it's laptop, you can't replace components.

Get it what I am saying? Buy custom PC and spend alot of money for it ### ONCE, than 1000$ every second or fourth year to get better laptop. And if laptop costs 1000$, you can get alot more powerful custom desktop PC with same price.

Believe me, thats how it is.

Edit: Can't see the laptops through link, because it says that I need account.

I agree with your sir, better buy a direct and spend to PC,
It's better and memory upgradable and bigger storage plus best durability...

MikeMoon, you will have more luck on a computer website not a Portal 2 mapping community. If you advertise anything you are going to be banned for being a spambot.
