Question about IBM T23 video specs and video memory

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

I am thinking to purchase a used IBM T23. The model number is
2647-9MU. This model has an SXGA screen but I have no idea how much
video memory it has.

I need to run a software application on this (or some similar laptop)
and the application requires a minimum 16mb video memory. Also, the
video card must be support DirectX 7 or higher.

I cannot find the info I need on the IBM web site.

If anyone has answers to the above questions I would be grateful.

Thanks,

GT

You can start here:

to find out everything there is to know about this model.

FWIW, the video card is an S3 Graphics SuperSavage, AGP 4X, 16MB SDRAM.

It does.

Do yourself a favor and swap out the 48GB 5400RPM HD that's in the unit now
for a 7200RPM HD such as the Hitachi 7K60. You'll be glad you did.
