    ok so for school i'm required to get a tablet pc. i'm going for the gateway c-140x b/c of the larger screen (most other tablets are 12.1''). my big question is whether i should get the Integrated Intel® GMA X3100 Graphics (with up to 384MB Shared Memory*) or the ATI Mobility™ Radeon® X2300 HD 256MB PCI Express Graphics (128MB GDDR3 Dedicated Memory with up to 256MB using HyperMemory™ Technology). i'll mostly be running cad software like solidworks and autodesk but i also enjoy the occasional game of half life 2. which would i be better off with?
