    Wow, your laptop has a lot more graphics memory than my laptop (only 32 MB), yet it's only a bit under three years older. My laptop seems so outdated now. :(

    My mom got a new laptop for Christmas, and here are the specs.

    Dell Inspiron 1501 with 15.4" WXGA Widescreen Display
    Purchased Late November - Early December '07

    AMD Athlon 64 X2 TK-55 (1.8GHz/256KB) Dual Core
    processor

    Windows Vista Home Premium
    operating system

    2 GB DDR2 SDRAM at 533MHz
    RAM

    80GB SATA Hard Drive
    hard drive

    24X CD Burner/DVD Combo Drive
    optical drive

    53 WHr 6-cell Lithium Ion Primary Battery
    battery

    256MB HyperMemory™ (Integrated)
    video card

    Microsoft Works 8.5
    productivity software

    Dell Wireless 1390 802.11g Mini Card (54Mbps)
    wireless networking card

    This computer is MUCH better than my laptop, despite the fact that my laptop is only a few months old. This new laptop has a Dual Core processor, 2 GB of RAM (this thing is going to FLY), and Vista Home Premium, which means it has Windows Aero (but the standard theme on Home Basic (which I have on my laptop) is basically Aero without the transparency), and Windows Media Center. I'm jealous. :P
