Re: New Advice Now!!
The desktop is more capable than the laptop. Being in a rush is fine, nearly indecipherable language is not.

Re: New Advice Now!!
I'd keep the desktop. Upgrade the GPU or something. If I have enough money, upgrade the motherboard and CPU with a Wolfdate E8400, or even a E6600.

Re: New Advice Now!!
the desktop has a better graphics card than the notebook
but both have very weak gpu and will run fear and oblivion only at the lowest setting to get playable fps

neither game will be playable on the laptop, even at lowest settings/resolution. They will be very tough to play on the desktop. She should upgrade her video card in the desktop to at least a 7900gs/8600gt (they can be had for $70ish), and maybe even upgrade her cpu to a x2 3600 or higher (not necessary, but recommended).

Re: New Advice Now!!
It honestly looks like a trade where you will get 1/2 of what you traded away. A mobile processor versus desktop, 1GB vs. 2GB, a GPU that is not upgradeable (and will NOT play Oblivion well at ALL) for a desktop GPU that can be upgraded to a decent level.
I think that guy is more focused on ripping you off.
