I have an nVidia Geforce 7400 with 256mb of ram and the thing runs at 1920x1200. While the laptop is quite a moose size-wise (I bought it to replace my laptop and desktop) it hasn't disappointed yet. I also got it with vista, but have been able to muscle it into usability. And, c'mon, the laptop has landing lights...
