thats all i know to be honest. i know laptops arent exactly best for gaming, but at the moment its just for the occasional online games and to get wireless on it and provide a connection via ethernet to my xbox 360.
do u think from those spec's. i would be able to run some decent games?
like warcraft, age of empires 2-3, and perhaps even battlefield?
and if not wat games could it handle decently?
i dont mind any sort of game.

Cheers.

Games like Warcraft 3 and AOE 2 runs fine in medium details. But games like AOE 3 and Battlefield, expect to turn the resolution to 640x480 minimal details in order to play...
