TNT2 M64 vs Intel 915GM
I don't know if you guys remember me but I'm just gna ask my question anyway.
I've been using a TNT M64 over the past goodness knows how many years, and will be replacing my system with an IBM notebook, using the on-board graphics on the 915GM (Sonoma) chipset. I'm wondering how the two compare in terms of 3D graphics performance - I am aware neither were really designed for gaming, but my curiosity has overcame my restraint to ask any silly questions.
Anyone got a clue?

Here's the info on the 915GM graphics capability:

I bet the laptop could probably almost outdo the m64 simply doing complete software (ie on cpu) rendering.
Here's a review as well:

Here's the goods on the M64 in quake III (which is also given in the previous review)

It would appear the 915GM does win .. at least in Quake III :P. I don't think you'll find many newer M64 reviews.
