I'm looking at getting a laptop for school and everything else. I want to be able to play MX simulator on it could anyone point me in a good direction to go? I really like the Microsoft surface book but I'm not sure how that would be. Also I really like the Dell xps15.

VoidMain is your guy, but you'll have to run Linux.

I own 4 HP Probook 4540s with Windows 7 Pro installed on 3 of them and Kali linux on the 4th.
I havent had any issues with them as far as hardware reliability goes.
For the price you cant beat them.
I've owned a few dells and always had problems with them heating up in regards to video & multimedia.
Since I've switched to these HP's all has been great.

I've also owned a few Macs & Toshiba's and Sony's over the years also...
These HP's have treated me the best in regards to hardware reliability.
Havent had to use the warranty at all, like I had to with most the other lappy's I've owned.

I'm big on reliability,because I use my computers to make money.
I like them to last with no issues.

But as for what I could find out about that...
I like the fact that those have backlit keyboard's.
That's a neat option and certainly a plus with me.
However,it's also something else that can go wrong.
But over all after reading about it,it seems like a neat little lappy.
Here's a review on it.

I'd also look into to their warranty services etc...
Never buy a lappy without a warranty.

I'm not much of a gamer...
My nephew has an HP 4530s which is one model down from the ones I use.
He's really into gaming and it works fine for him.
He says the video card in his is middle of the road.
The stock Ram & CPU should be ok also.
When you buy a lappy,you can upgrade stuff also to your preferred specs.
If you are thinking about buying a HP - just call them and tell them what you are looking for.
But no matter what you buy,make sure you get a good warranty.
