newbie(ish) question

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

Hi all, sorry if this is a bit of a dead-end question but I'm kind of
confused.

I'm thinking of buying a new laptop and among other advice I got I've
been told to try and get a system that doesn't use shared graphics
memory. My problem is how do you know if the memory is shared or not
as almost none of the ad's I've seen state this explicitly.

Also what general advice would you guys have for sourcing a laptop in
the UK/Ireland? It will have to be at least small business grade.

If responding please e-mail me.

Thanks in advance for you help guys.
Jim
