Looking at purchasing a new laptop here are the specs, Any thoughs on if this
will run the Aero feartures of Vista. More concerned about the graphics more
than anything else the rest is fine I believe.

Intel® Core2 Duo Processor T5300,2MB L2 cache,1.73GHZ,533FSB
2GB (1GB/1GB) DDR2 SDRAM
NVIDIA GeForce GO 7300,128MB VRAM(also comes with onboard video
160GB, 5400 RPM
Integrated Super-Multi Drive (DVD+R,DVD-R,DVD-RAM)

The onboard video is Integrated ATI Mobility Radeon Xpress 1100 which can
used up to 256 MB of shared system memory.

Is this dedicated 128 MB card better then the 256 Non dedicated card as far
as Vista goes...

Yes, those specs look great for running Vista. The video won't be a problem
at all, it will handle Aero and DreamScene no problem.
