Non-Gamer question about UMA card

[Green2CPU]

I have a question about an integrated graphics card on a laptop that I am looking at buying. First let me say that I am not a gamer. I don't play any games on my PC. With that in mind, will it make that much of a difference that this computer has an UMA chip instead of a graphics card? I'd mostly be using it to surf the web and stream videos(Netflix,HBOGo, youtube).

The laptop I am looking at is an Asus:

It has a 2nd generation Intel i5-2430M processor. From what I've read the integrated graphics card for this processor is an Intel HD graphics 3000. As I said in my original post, I am not looking to use this as a gaming computer. What I'd like to know is if the graphics card is good enough for web browsing and streaming video. For under $500 this really looks like a solid buy, but I'd like to find out more about the integrated graphics before purchasing.

This will do fine for the web and HD videos. The HD 3000 can do everything a non gamer needs in everyday tasks.
