It's not that bad, really. It's more than enough to play BfME2. I'm not sure if C&C3 or Age of Empires III plays fast on it. I've never tried it in my tablet.

Only if you don't have a problem playing on lowest detail. A GF6150 is short of being under the minimal required specs for CnC3.
ARGUMENT FROM CREATION, a.k.a. ARGUMENT FROM PERSONAL INCREDULITY (I)
(1) If evolution is false, then creationism is true, and therefore God exists.
(2) Evolution can't be true, since I lack the mental capacity to understand it; moreover, to accept its truth would cause me to be uncomfortable.
(3) Therefore, God exists.

If you're after a tablet get a tablet, this is a laptop with a touchscreen.
The difference? A proper tablet needs an active stylus, thus is more responsive. This you can tap with a finger, tablet, anything you have at hand, but its not very responsive. I've used the onscreen keyboard before, but you can't really write on it that well.
It is however, still awesome for rts games (dispite lots of misclicks, etc), and handy when you're moving about and have it in slate mode.

Aye, the 6150 is an onboard, non-gaming card. You can't really do a great deal with it :(
I just bought a new rig o' def. Needs setting up and tuning properly, but the hardware is nice. Taken my since September to save for:
Need to add PhysX and a Capture Card. Can't have both. Arsebuckets, might have to go the external route for capture :'(

Au contrair, I work with it, so it's essential. I already have the card, it's just not installed.
It's not as under rated as people claim it to be, the issue is, there's no killer ap that requires it to justify it's use, so any implementation tends to be minimal at best. It's cloth simulation for example, is fantastic and just doesn't run on a non-PhysX system.

So obviously, just because my old PDA would survive ragnarock, doesn't stop my new one breaking within a week. Column of pixels decided they want to keep their blue turned up full all the time, now always pretty or easy to read over, so I take it back and get it replaced.
An hour of forms and boxes later, I have a new PDA, but its not until I later load the backup I took of the other that it decides its not going to cooperate. The password its copied across with all my settings and files will not work on the new device. And I know its the right password. And without unlocking it its impossible to restore, so seems its bricked.
Thank god for 14-day return policies and if you're buying an iPAQ, get an old one unless you're running Vista; I only got it so I could sync word, but XP's Activesync converts files into readable formats. And because my anchient 3715 died after I failed to rewrite the ROM. It has since revived itself, and it doing great under the watchful eye of my secretary. Moral of the story? Always keeps boxes, bags, bits and receipts, and don't buy a 112 when you can get by with an indestructable antique 3715

Well, thanks to having just made the reset procedure too complex to do without help (and extra hands), and thanks to customer service (when they don't die before resolving the problem or take a week off), its back alive after all. Have a blessed day.
I was holding the reset button too long. Not sure where I got 12seconds from, but to reset a 112 you must hold down buttons 2, 3, and 5 (using up hands 1 and 2). Whilst holding them, press reset for 4 seconds. Release reset. Release buttons. Hop around a maypole on a full moon. Cross fingers. Uncross fingers. Reset the 3715 two dozen times, because you can easily one-handed. Think I'm happier with it now though, or that its only a gibbus moon o.o
Anyway, Palm's are apple, thus I won't say they're inferior because everyone either knows it or knows it but will argue otherwise because they're that way inclined, and Blackberrys more a tooled up phone than a PPC, and I want a PPC for my PDA, as its definately getting more use from Office and games than Push Email and SMS.
