    Hi guys im new obviously but i have been in and out for the last 4 weeks on the site and like 2 weeks on hte forums trying to figure out what i want to get. For the longest time i figured i would either get dv2000 or v3000 since they look pretty hot and are pretty cheap. I had bought a gateway from bestbuy like a month ago and it crashed in 5 days which was kind of a shock after i tried to install diablo 2 on it. Ne who my real question is what do you guys think bout this laptop the dv 5226 im thinkin about buying it the specs are on the bestbuy site and i shall put them over here too. Best buy has it for 999.99 canadian

    specs:
    Intel Core Duo T2050
    1536MB DDR2 667MHz
    120GB SATA (5400RPM)
    Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
    Super Multi 8X DVD±R/RW w/ Double Layer

    my confusion with the laptop is its network card and also will it b able to play war craft 3

    thanx guys i hope i put this up rite and in the right section

    thanx again

    The 950 is fairly low on the graphics card food chain.
