hmm looked up minimum specs, guess it could run.

I just bought this one and a Vostro 1500 for me and the girlfriend. Should get the 1400 in a couple days and can provide pics/reviews if anyone is interested.

I have the 1500 right now and it seems to be a great laptop so far. They have a deal on the 1500 for $579, but not with the upgraded graphics card.

jimmy, let me know if the vostro is a light laptop.

I have an older inspiron with the pentium m and the thing is like carrying around a bag of bricks.

I have the 1500 right now and it is heavier, but not too bad. The 1400 is supposed to be lighter and smaller. It’s not due in til the 7th though (so plan 2-3 weeks)

Hope when it comes in it won’t be too late.

Also, I was able to pick up 4gb of RAM for $66 shipped vs the $300 dell wanted.
