dv2000t: now that the nvidia geforce go 7200 is back...

Now that the Nvidia GeForce Go 7200 is once again available on the dv2000t's, I've been hearing about how the Intel GMA 950 is getting a better Windows Experience Index score.

The Go 7200 is only 128MB of video memory, but the GMA 950 is 'up to' 228MB, correct? From what I understand, 128MB is dedicated, and the rest (up to 228MB) is borrowed from the RAM (I am still learning about graphics cards)?

So does this mean I may be better off with the Intel GMA 950? I still (as previously posted) will only be using my notebook for Photoshop CS2/CS3 (camera RAW), Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Audition, video editing with Quicktime Pro (and other software in the future). I will also be connecting a digital-back Hasselblad camera for instant downloading of studio photography. Other than that, just internet, watching movies, possible video capturing in the future (such as TV or video game speed runs [yeah, I'm a geek]).

I'm so tempted by the 7400 in the dv6000t though, but I currently have a 15.4", and I'd like to go smaller. Meh.

 

The 7200 will be much better. the GMA doesnt have enough ooomph to use all that memory.

 

OF COURSE! I knew this was going to happen... they DID put the GO7200 back in the DV2000t, but they also jacked the prices up like CRAZY now that VISTA is out (er going to be "officially" out on 1/30). I cannot customize a notebook on HP (particulary the 2000t) for an less than $1100 now where just on Friday I could get one for about $875. UGH! I am so frustrated! AND I cannot find any coupons to get this price down at all. I am really thinking now of going to the store to buy my notebook rather than buying it online.
I was in Best Buy today and I saw this for only $799.11...

... They could not sell it to me until Tuesday though as VISTA is already installed in it and they can't release it until 1/30 per Microsoft. It's a 15" and an AMD processor and only has the 6150 graphics card, but it beats paying $300 more for just a smaller screen, a little better graphics card and an Intel processor. Any thoughts on this?...

I can customize a Compaq V3000z for about $900 and a DELL E1505 for about $950 with the same specs as above. The DELL is tempting because it has a way beter graphics card in it- the ATI X1400. I am just so tired of researching and waiting... now I just want to buy. What should I do?...
