I'm considering an Avertec 3150:

Athlon XP-M 1600+ 1.4GHz
12.1 in XGA TFT
S3 ProSavage8 Integrated Video w/ 32mb SMA VRAM
256mb RAM
DVD/CD-RW
56k, 10/100 LAN
802.11b Wireless
30gb HD
3-hour battery

I'll use it for Internet/Word Processing/Slight Gaming. Is the video card too weak? Will it play Warcraft III well? How does it compare to Radeon 7500-M or Intel Integrated?

Any other thoughts?

Thanks.

I am sorry to say but I believe this would choke on WCIII. I was interested in this little guy but the keyboard is too cramped for me and the video card is not so hot. I know Averatec has a new series out based on the Centrino...might want to check that out!!! Prices for them are still below $1500 and they have the whole centrino setup...and a combo drive i think....
