You're right, I was looking at the 15inch screen, not the 14 I had psoted. Ill check ebay.

Is that intel, onboard video any good?

 

^^ The Intel on-board stuff works great........but it really depends on what you are going to be doing with it. What games are going to be played on it?

 

Older games, diablo 2 and nascar racing 2003. I may want to put a newer game on there though, could this laptop run far cry 1 or COD 4?

 

^^ Should be able to. COD4 is available on Mac, so I just looked it up on one of the Mac Forums, and people said it runs just fine on theirs.

 

Cool gaming laptop. Seems to be similar to the much cheaper ACER except this guy has a video card....

Thoughts? is it missing anything?

 

intel graphics card will not run farcry or cod. You will maxing out the intel's graphic capability when you run microsoft word.

 

^^ Thanks, I was kind of thinking that.

Anythoughts on that XG laptop?

 

Seems awesome for the price. Just only thing is its a questionable brand. Never heard of them.

 

Intel dual core the way to go? Or is AMD just as good?

 

This may be the laptop I am getting. 1 yr warranty with it.
