Why she thinks I know this I don't know, but I know the good folks here will know. Can someone tell me if she needs to upgrade the card???
She doesn't need to spend the extra $$$ for the vid card unless she is into gaming, or any type of 3D applications.

Otherwise it should be fine, honestly, I doubt she'd even need 2GB of RAM to edit her pics; I have only 1GB and have no problem with photoshop and all of my pics.
