    Hi,

    I would like to know if i made a good deal paying 560 US dollars on a brand new t43, just like this one:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16834146118

    And if the ATI x300 64mb (up to 256 sharing RAM) can support Cs, Cs:source on low settings with no lag.

    Oh, and if its worth upgrading the 512 ddr2 533 for 2gb(2x1gb)..will it affect the battery life a lot?

    Thanks. :)

    I think it is a very good deal. I can play CS: Source at 800x600 resolution with no lag at all. I have 1.5gb of memory and I never use more than 1gb of it. You won't notice much of an affect on the battery life.
