"The specs have nothing about the rpm or the graphics capabilites..."

The specs are there, you just have to look for them. But you're in trouble if you think you're gonna find a gaming laptop at that site for that amount of money. Since new machines are running Vista, you should have at least 1GB RAM & 2GB would be even better. Using the search feature, there's only one laptop with 2GB available in your price range & it uses the Intel GMA 900 series integrated graphics, which suck for gaming.
