    Is there an Acer model that has the same kind of specs as a 4400 but with a slightly cheaper graphics card?

    I want to be able to play games but I don't want to spend 1200 on it if at all possible...

    So not like an Intel graphics card but a cheaper ATI or NVidia?

    Thanks for the help
    Will

    PS - If you have any other suggestions that'd be great too.

    4400 is as good as your gonna get with graphics and price ratio from acer...

    Perhaps try the dv4000 from HP...you may be able to get it cheaper with some coupons maybe..

    Also check the MSI-1029 out..i know you can get it for around 1100...

    If 1100 is too much..i dont know what to say

    You might want to fill out the FAQ in the Hardware forum and see what recommendations others have for your needs. {For the dv4000, you can check out my review and/or Togus's review that's on the NotebookReview frontpage right now.}
