Yes, and the same laptop is available a lot cheaper under different brands!
The 64Mb ATI 9000 mobile chipset is pretty good for gaming, Ive got it in
my laptop. If you can find it on your budget, look for the ATI 9600 mobile
chipset, its just come out and it looks the mutts nuts from all the reviews
Ive seen so far. Its WAY more powerful than the 9000!
