    I was just browsing AV's site and noticed that there is no longer product information about the 6128 - 6130HS models.

    Now the site features the 6110, which looks like an awesome book!

    I was looking at the 6110 and it didn't state what graphics it was using. I wonder if it'll use the same graphics as the 6130hs or will it use the same as the 6200 series?

    the site doesn't say anything about a radeon 9600 so I guess it will be shared.

    on the comp usa site the 6110 is listed as having shared video memory as opposed to the old 6100's with a dedicated card

    If the shared video memory causes you concern, you can always tweak that in the bios settings. Most puters with shared graphics memory have less than stellar performance anyhow. There's usually a set of set values you can choose from up to the limit of the system to handle it...usually in multiples of 4. Like 4,8,16,24,32,64, etc etc.

    If you want a machine to game with.. a laptop definitely isn't your best bet.

    Save the money for a lovely desktop with a powerful video card and a nice crisp monitor :)
