    i'd say this notebook would be a good desktop replacement for working generally but not really suitable for gamers. if you like the look of the fs, try looking at the fe series which look identical but are dual core and have dedicated graphics. some things which i should point out are:

    1. the cpu is pentium m which is pretty good but you don't get benefits of a dual core cpu
    2. integrated graphics good for office work but not for serious gamers
    3. probably not vista capable
