I am upgrading from the notebook in my sig to something a little more powerful, my budget is £400-450. (I am in the UK). At first I was looking at some £400 DELL E1501's with AMD X2, 512MB/1GB RAM and Xpress 1150. Then I thought about some other makes like Acer, for £410 I could get this:

AMD MK-36 2GHz
512MB
120GB
DVD±RW
XP Media Center
15.4" LCD 1280x800
I also saw this (which I think is really great) Lenovo N100 for £460, which has:
Core Duo 1.66GHz
512MB
80GB
DVD±RW
XP Home
15.4" LCD 1680x1050 (this is very tempting)
Dedicated 64MB TC 7300 Go (not sure how this performs)
So I dont know what notebook to choose from, I like the Lenovo but I dont know how the GPU compares with other GPU's like the Xpress 1150 or a X1300? I looked at this chart to find out a comparsion, and its higher than both.

Also any other good laptops in this price range? I would want a Widescreen display minimum res 1280x800 and probably at least Xpress 1150 GPU for some lite gaming I do.
Thanks.
