Ive read taht the ati radeon 9000 only supports directx 8.x.
Ive also read that halo PC requres directx 9 or later.
does thsi mean that a computer with the radeon 9000 wont play halo?
do alot of recent games require directx9?

thank you loai for being very helpful, so it will run it okay?
I jus t dont want to spend a bunch of money on this laptop and then not be anle to play new games on it.
If it will run halo and other games then I will be happy with it I am sure.
especially with voodoo's upgrade policy whic would alow me to upgrade it later when I have the money to do so.
