World Of Warcraft Worthy Laptop

[teamhex]

My sisters going off to college and my mom wants to get her a laptop. She knows nothing about technology. So shes getting me to find one. Well, I don't generally mess with laptops, but does anyone know of a laptop that can play WOW. Nothing to powerful or expensive. Just something that will run WOW smoothly?

Mine has twice the video memory :O

I like the dell vostro selection. It has more than double the hard drive space. If you can afford more, I would upgrade the processor more than 1.8ghz. If not, 1.8 is still good as it is a core 2 duo.

HP's are a great laptop, and the finish is also really good looking.

It might even make wow fun to play.
