Compaq V4118AP doesn't have dedicated graphics. It's definitely a good machine, but not
in the same league as IBM/Lenovo or Fujitsu. I suggest you at least visit an LG dealer for the LW60.
LG laptops are not bad in quality and the price/performance ratio is too good to resist, IMHO.
If you can live without dedicated graphics, ThinkPad R52 is the best choice.
