Jean- I received my laptop last week and have used it everyday on SL AND... It's flipping fantastic. I can run it on ultra graphics with NO LAG WHAT SO EVER and THE GRAPHICS ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD BEAUTIFUL. Thank you for your advise but I am glad I tried it before I took your advise. Now that I think about it, it was completely stupid of me to post a question about this. Not too long ago, I ran sl on a very old Dell Latitude D600. Now, that's what I call poor graphics and major annoyances and yes with THAT LAPTOP I was only able to do simple web content consuming. My new laptop is a very good multi-tasker and I couldn't be happier with my decision to purchase it. )
