World Of Warcraft a "graphics heavy game" ?

are you kidding?

the game runs at max setting at 1024*768 on a 1 gig SINGLE core cpu and a 5 year old grfx card!

Yeah, what he said. <LOL>

If they really want to impress me they should try running Crysis on it. Hell, even something like FarCry would be impressive.

say *mo-bile*

Your 1024x768 1GHz single core CPU with a 5 year old gfx card still requires a petrol-powered generator and dolly for anything approaching mobility

Geez. That's a bit like pointing out that a Bugatti Veyron's top speed is crap. When compared to a fighter jet.

...then why doesn't it have on-die I/O? If it's two chips, it's not an SoC, it's just got an integrated memory controller.

2 chips equates to neither of them being a 'system on chip' - SOC.

A decent degree of integration, granted, but not-a-SOC.
