    Don´t get the 7150, your 9600 Pro is even better than that IGP. I have the 9600 Pro on my desktop computer and the 7000m on my laptop and the 9600 kicks the 7000m in the *ss in ANY game.

    If your going to get a laptop with an IGP, your only real choice is the dv5z because the ATI 3200 is equal or better in some cases than a dedicated 8400m GS.

    kay but the thing is I was going to get an asus eee 1000 which I could get for around 549, but I didn't want to spend much more, the compaq c50-110 with the 8200M costs me 630, sshould I go with it? a lappie with the 3200 costs around 1100 U$s and I got to pick it up in store cause I'm going to be in NY next week.

    Depends dude, are u gonna play games on your laptop? If you are then the Asus won´t cut it anywho. Go for the lappie with the 3200, you won´t regret it.

    For $1,100, you can get a notebook with something better than the HD3200. That's the bottom of the barrel.

    The dv5z is at $600 on the hp website... IN store is not the only way to go.
