Just purchased the new 15" 1.5 book and didn't get the 128 vram as it was a BTO option and I needed the book asap. Is it possible to upgrade the video card yourself to 128? If so, who supplies it and to what degree of difficulty is it to perform the upgrade.

Thanks for your help.

What are the exact benefits of 128mb for someone who does not use an external monitor though?

Im sure with 128MB gaming will be slightly improved, not to mention longevity in the computer itself. I'm trying to sell my 12" so I could up it to either a combo 15" or superdrive 12" because 32MB just isn't cutting it for the little gaming I do.
