    Well, I can tell you that the Radeon Xpress 200M graphics chip in the v2000z is powerful enough to play CS 1.6. So, no problem there. CS:S you may have a little trouble with.

    The HP zv6000 has a dedicated memory version of the X200M - it's much faster. It gets about 700 in 3DMark05.

    If you want to, complete the FAQ , and we'll post some more suggestions.

    For the price, I think they are a nice laptop. If you want good battery life get the 12 cell battery.
