Hi

I'm deciding between systems with the following video cards...does anyone know which one will be the best/worst for running games, in particular I like to play FS2002.

- Fujitsu P1.6 w/ ATI® Mobility Radeon™ with 16MB

- Toshiba C1.2 w/ Trident CyberALADDiN-T graphics controller w/16MB external UMA video memory

- S3 Super Savage graphics controller w/16MB internal video memory

Anyone know what the difference is btw "external" and "internal" is that the diff. btw on-board and shared?

I also want to use this thing as a DVD player to hook into a TV.

Will XGA resolution hurt my experience gaming or watching DVDs? I figure I can tap into a regular CRT at times.

I know Dell has some systems with UXGA and 32MB NVidia Cards..but from my experience Dell laptops suck otherwise.

Also, does anyone know if there are PCMCIA video cards available?

Thanks for any help,
DJmadnan

The only decent graphics chip out of those three is the ATI® Mobility Radeon™
