Hi i was looking at a laptop with these specs for £468.82 inc Vat

15.4" X-Brite Screen
Intel Core Duo T2250 1.73Ghz 2MB Cache Dual Core Processor
2048MB DDR2 533MHz Memory
120GB SATA Hard Drive
Intel 943GM Graphics
Azalia High Definition Audio
DVDR Multi Burner
56K Internal Modem
10/100 & 54G Wireless LAN
4 in 1 Card Reader ( SD,MMC,MS & MS Duo )
Weight - 2.7Kg with battery

Does anyone know if the Intel 943GM graphics will be able to run any games such as WoW? Also can anyone find anything for a better price. Thanks

Using that graphics now, runs wow at full resolution on medium settings.

This is a celeron 1.6 though, I imagine it'll run a hell of a lot more smoothly with that cpu.

I don't know about wow, maybe on crap settings, but it wont run any modern games. Those chips are designed for desktop graphics and videos only.

Also is it possible to buy a bigger battery for the laptop so that it can last longer without being on charge?

Some manufacturers sell 12 cell batteries.
