Hi,
I want to get the new powerbook, and was wondering if anyone is familiar with the video card on it.
Will it be able to play warcraft and not be laggy in big battles?
Thanks

It's a good improvement, but the 5200 is still a lackluster gaming card...but for a 12" notebook, it's pretty impressive. It should handle Warcraft fine.

Video *chip*...video *chip*...video *chip*!!!
There's no "card" in Apple notebooks. It is a video chip soldered on the motherboard. I'm sure it's just me, but it drives me crazy that everybody calls it a video card.

Good point, never realized this. If it was a video card then you would be able to upgrade!

Yes, good point Steve, I learned something 
So you guys think the 5200 is a nice upgrade ? I think I will buy a 12" by the end of the year. The only games I have are Warcraft 3 and Harry Potter. I am not a gamer at all ...
