Can't say for certain what the memory configuration is on the video; 'dedicated' sometimes means on-board, but sometimes they mean 'we've dedicated 128MB of the system RAM to the graphics board'.  Short of seeing one and poking at it, I don't know if there is any way to tell for sure.The hard drive on that model is dog-slow, however.  4200 is as slow as it gets; most modern laptop drives are 5400, and high-performance ones are 7200.  For comparison, nearly all desktop drives are 7200, the system drive in my PC is 10,000, and servers are usually 10,000 to 15,000.  I yanked the 4200 that was in the laptop I got two years ago and replaced it with a 5400 and noticed a significant improvement.</blockquote>
