    I was wrong about their not being a video hardware listed. There is a

Integrated Intel GMA X4500

video hardware and I have no idea if it will work. Now if you have the nVidia Geforce 9800 this is what I have on this computer and it works great with Hardy, 8.10, and 9.04 but you need to get the proper driver which is available from Ubuntu, you can d/l it.
