Acer 5770

14.1inch
t2050 at 1.6ghz(centrino duo)
1024mb of ram
100gb (5400rpm drive)
224mb (shared) graphics

It seems light,and pretty fast but is the Graphics card a deal breaker?

I know little about notebooks...only desktop systems

anyinsight?

graphics card is only an issue if you game. Even then, it's good for average lower res gaming.

It will run it.. sure.

Just won't be the coolest thing ever.
You can get a dell 640m right now for 999. Similar specs, but its core 2 duo.
