I have a Satellite Pro M30, and am seriously considering upgrading the graphics card. Is this possible? Has anyone here done it in the past? If so, what cards would you suggest I look into? Spec follows (from the Irish website)

notebook video cards are soldered on the motherboard itself, so you're basically out of luck with upgrading the video card. what vid card did you want anyways
