Laptops have worse airflow so can heat up more quickly. Also, Laptop: spill drink on your keyboard, you're screwed buddy! PC: spill drink on your keyboard: clean up and go on.

Laptops are nice because they get nice and warm, and you can sit them on your lap...

That is certainly a performance problem. More heat=worse performance. While today's laptops certainly won't set on fire or completely lock up, play for a few hours and you can certainly feel the difference between a nice and cool pc still running at the same speeds and the pretty hot laptop drastically slowing down as the hours progress.
This is a long term effect, you won't notice it if you only have your laptop on for about one hour or less(of course also depending on the model, but generally).

I'd go for an ASUS or Toshiba laptop, and lose the Intel, you pay more for a worse processor then AMD.

I'd look somewhere else, apparently Intel has bought out Best Buy, not a single AMD processor. But other then the crappy Intel processor (sorry I really hate them, my mom has a "better" processor then me, an Intel to my AMD, and still mine runs faster, better games and I can easily alt+tab and open another game while she's stuck with 1 thing at a time) it looks pretty good.
