Radeon Xpress 200m

Hi guys. I am looking into buying a laptop with this video card chipset. I have been trying to research the chipset but cannot figure out for the life of my the VRAM on this thing. I know it is direct X 9 compatible. It came out about a year ago so I assume it is not Direct X 10 compatible (would I be correct in this assumption)? Some Mac user must know about PCs! Thanks in advance to all you PC/Mac gurus out there.

Google turned this up. It looks like 64-128 MB of shared video RAM from the system RAM. Take note this is an integrated video solution.

Thanks... I appreciate your help. Do you think it will allow me to decide between allocating 64 or 128?

It'll more then likely have the driver decide how much to allocate given the amount of system RAM and what applications are demanding use.
