Hey guys, I just picked up a new laptop yesterday.
What are the capabilities, if any, of my laptop when it comes to HD?
Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD
16:9 Aspect 15.6" HD LCD Screen
No "Blu-ray" or HD DVD drive/player

I assume from looking that it's capable of running average quality 720p from downloads which is basically all I'm looking for. I'm not going to waste my time downloading a 5gb movie though if it doesnt work. Also, if I download a "blu-ray" torrent (1080p) will my computer simply downgrade the rez to 720 or will it practically ignore the high def if it isnt 720?
Obviously a bit of a newbie here so any info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
