Sony VGN-NR21S as gaming machine?

[Flavbot]

Since im completely lost when it comes to laptops i wonder how this machine will preform for lets say World of Warcraft?

Sony VGN-NR21S
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo T5450 (1.66GHz, 2MB Cache)
RAM: 2GB (Upgradable to 4GB, ill probably do that later)
Motherboard: Mobile Intel GM965 Express Chipset
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GT

It will be able to handle WoW just fine, likely on medium settings, depending on resolution.

I would never buy a sony laptop, though. They're cheap and use sub-par parts.

Well Im only getting it because im going to Kairo for a couple of months and need something for mail and basic entertainment.

It will do fine, as long as it's a decent unit.
