    first:
    with the integrated graphics, is the e1405 going to have trouble running things in vista such as glass? also, just how good/bad is integrated graphics? could it handle an fps released within the past 2 years (doom III for example)?

    2nd:
    im not sure how far i should upgrade my processor. i dont mind paying the extra money, but at the very most i plan to play un-intense games (warcraft III for example). im probably only going to use it for regular tasks (internet, microsoft office, music, videos). i do want the computer to be able to handle vista with no problems when it is released though. what do you guys suggest?
