Hey guys
I am a graduating HS senior, and am going to college next year (albeit community college, still college) i want to get a laptop, and im looking at one really closely, it has a great price on it and full of good features. Mainly i want to know if anyone has this laptop and what they think of it and how it runs, any problems etc. Also want to know how a Gefore Go 6150 fairs up to a Geforce Fx5500. Im going to use this laptop for majority school work, the usual online stuff, and i might play flight simulator on it sometimes (it has a geforce...so idk)

The laptop

Thanks guys !
 
the 5500 would probably edge it out by a bit.

heres a rundown of all the mobile gpus Text
as you can see, the 6150 is in performance class 5. right down there with the integrated graphics.
