    Hey guys. So I have the opprotunity to get a 17 inch 2.33 GHz, 250GB, 4GB RAM, and the new OS, but it only has the Radian 1600X video card. Now I am getting it for way cheap. I.E. under 1500. So what do you guys think I should do? I play games like Half Like 2, Guild Wars, etc every once in a while. Will this support those? Good comp for the price? And yes I'm a Windows guy converting to Apple if possible.

    get an old model MBP for 1350$ with student discount.
    If this machine doesnt come with warranty, it's even more expensive.
