    Look around for a laptop video card. Can't assure you that you'd find one but if you look around enough, you should be able to find one for a good amount.

    My mistake then. Look for one that is compatible with your card slot then. AGP, PCI-e or PCI.

    Yeah. Desktop offers many options...laptop=few. Do not skimp, as your graphics card represents one half of your I/O interface with your machine...the BIG half...Output!
