Yes it works great for SL. Make sure you get one of those laptop coolers to go with it or your lappie may end up a door stop.

Sure thi- ... Wait a second... *hugs computer* Mine. Its on its way already, wooo!

Great price for something that can run games, I cant wait to pimp it out and make it pretty.

Off topic, but anyone think it could run a high end game like warhammer online?

Actually, I've never heard of Warhammer Online. But, if it will run SL (which it will), it will run any game that is presently online. SL is, by far, the most demanding game you can use online.
