Cheap laptop gaming capabilities?

Hey all,

I recently found a cheap laptop deal at Newegg with seemingly decent specs for the price:

NASCAR PC NCL3006 NoteBook AMD Turion 64 ML-30(1.60GHz) 15.4" Wide XGA 512MB DDR333 60GB DVD±R/RW ATI Radeon Xpress 200M Integrated - >$500 AR

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834228002

I'm planning to play WoW on this one and was wondering if anyone had experience with similar specs, what type of performance would I expect to get? I'm not saying I need it to play flawless, but if it's at 10 fps while running in the open with no one else onscreen, that would probably be a bit too aggravating for me.

Suggestions/advice please.

WoW doesnt need high specs...........the graphics are old and outdated

I think even a pentium 3 800Mghz 256mb of ram and onboard graphics could still get a decent frame rate.......
