Kids How will this laptop fare in MMORPGs like Everquest, SWG?

I have a Dell Dimension PC which I had thought would be powerful enough to handle Everquest, but sure enough zones like The Bazarre in Luclin lag me horribly, and joining a raid with more than a few groups slows me down to a crawl. Many areas in SW:G are also verty laggy for me, aI have had to turn off all of the nice graphics features which make the game interesting to look at. I am hoping this laptop (descr. below) will provide a better playing experience, anyone have opinions? My hunch tells me it will do great, but I've been wrong and would love some reassurance.


The laptop in question is:
VoodooPC Envy m:855
Athlon 64 3400+
1G 400 RAM
60G 7200 HD
ATI Radeon 9600 Pro 128

Thanks for any input!

Iccy

You know actually I have a Gateway Solo Pro 9300 with a 700 PIII and a Mobility Rage Pro, it handles MMORPGs better than the notebook in question because of a special version of XP I loaded on their. If you'd like, I can trade that Voodoo you're considering, PM me and I'll give you my PO box.

j/k actually that notebook with KA for the games you like, and many more. It may actually run Homeworld2!
