They dont have a graphics "card", its separate on-board memory for the graphics usually. You should do it OK, saw one the other day (1.3 GHz) that was bought a few months ago for under $3k

92000 2002-10-23 04:10:00 You cant re-use XP on another PC.. 2K, 98, ME and the rest maybe, but not XP. BTW, It's illegal anyways... Chilling_Silence (9)
92001 2002-10-23 04:36:00 No copy of Windows (any version) can legally be used on two or more computers unless you have corporate volume licencing, in which case you still pay for the extra licence. godfather (25)
