    Yes it is a dedicated chip. Has 128 own memory, that is all nvidia is willing to tell.
    They insists on not giving information about their Quadro chips...

    Yes, it will play WoW, Star CraftII, HL2, and Oblivion. You will be able to run World of Warcraft maxed out all the way; Star CraftII will also work, but don't know how well it will run, maybe at around low-medium? Half Life 2 will play maxed out, but game resolution does make a difference with that card (64 bit Memory Bus). Oblivion should run around medium just fine, but also dependent on the resolution being played on. I advise you to head to www.laptopvideo2go.com/ and download the modded drivers which would give the Quadro NVS 135M similar performance to an 8400M GS since they're practically the same GPU. Also my friend has the same exact notebook (Dell Latitude 630), but with a 1.8 GHz CPU, 2GB RAM, Windows XP and the same Quadro NVS 135M card. He’s using modded drivers from the link I sent you and he can play Bioshock at medium-low at 1280x800 resolution with acceptable frame rates.
