    I canceled my Lenovo order, but why you might ask? Check out this


    Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processor T8300 (2.4GHz 800MHz 3MBL2)1
    Genuine Windows Vista Home Basic
    15.4 WXGA TFT
    NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M (128MB)
    2 GB PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM 667MHz SODIMM Memory (2 DIMM)
    UltraNav (TrackPoint and TouchPad)
    160GB Hard Disk Drive, 7200rpm
    CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo 24X/24X/24X/8X Max, Ultrabay Slim5
    ThinkPad 11a/b/g Wi-Fi wireless LAN Mini-PCIe US/EMEA/LA/ANZ10
    No Bluetooth
    6 cell Li-Ion Battery60
    6459: Express - 1 Yr Depot Warranty7

    all for $937.98, but since my last order was the 570 graphics, what is the difference in performance with the 140M, im only going to use it for games like SC2 , D3, and WoW which arent too demanding. And I also understand that if I download newer drivers it will help as well. Screen shots would be nice.

    the 140M is fine to play WoW on high settings!

    I can play Crysis on the NVS 140M on lowest settings decently. It's not pretty and sometimes slows at certain parts, but it's fully playable.
