I love Sony, my current laptop is by them. But the Acer has a 512MB graphics card where the Sony only has 256mb video built in. The new WOTLK I hear is gonna be a bit more demanding on a card, so which one would you go for?? Would appreciate a bit of help!!

Neither are particularly good, but should be more then enough for World of Warcraft. Not much to seperate them performance wise, both from the same class of card. If gaming's your aim, there are far better laptops in the 600-800 euro price range. Like this for 650 for example, or this for 750. The 8600GS would be about 50% faster then the 8400GS/3470, the 8600GT closer to 75%.
