    I recently bought this on back-order from BB and am having trouble determining the graphics in the unit. It says ATI Radeon, but it doesn't specify which one??

    Also, I read on these forums that it comes with a 802B wireless card. I didn't know this at the time of purchase ond got an 802G. Should I keep the card I bought or would the B card suffice?

    Thanks!!

    It has a 64MB shared memory video card.

    As for wireless, unless you have access to 802.11g, there's really no point in paying extra for that card. The B will certainly suffice for the next several years.
