I was lookin at laptops for college...I'll need it for the basic school stuff, and I'd like to be able to run some games on it as well. Here's some basic setup I saw, but what about the graphics card? I'm a noob as far as these numbers go...

NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150

is that one any good?

    The 6150 is a onboard graphics card. It is an okay GPU but it lacks in most games. I don't know what titles your thinking of playing but if it is games like Fear, oe Oblivion forget about playing games on that GPU.

    The 6150 is not made for playing games, just basic computer tasks and movies/DVD's. The only good thing about it is it doesn't suck much of your battery juice.

    To note, the 6150 is way better than what Intel offers for onboard Graphics

    So what's an example of a laptop with a decent graphics card around $1000? It doesn't have to be amazing at games...just enough to run it so they are, eh, tolerable...
