    For video on the plane, I would highly recommend getting a tablet instead for that.
    Strong words, would you like to cite a source for that? Until a source is cited I'm going to consider your post as rubbish and ignore it.

    I was going to and did post something here, but I forgot I was ignoring your post, so I edited my post.

    Pineapple? Pineapple.

    Laptop graphics is all about trade offs. High power, low battery life/high heat. High battery life, low power, lower heat. The Intel HD 3000 on board graphics work well for general tasks and videos, even light games. I haven't done much heavy gaming at all, but performance is dependent on what settings you want to run. You can change power settings, throttle the GPU[and CPU] speed/power for better battery life, or you can get a bigger battery.
