Sweet :-) Glad I could help!

Thanks for the heads up Brian, i've just made this fix and it should show up soon.

You guys say that the i3 3227U has no integrated GPU but the Intel website, and products being sold with this chip disagree :-/ http://ark.intel.com/products/72057/Intel-Core-i3-3227U-Processor-3M-Cache-1_90-GHz

Highly efficient and yet low cost solution under the 17W low power arena. It can even outperform many older (< sandy bridge) but higher TDP processors in the low end cup. PC mark 7 score: 2000, Valley benchmark extreme score: 120, Windows 7 experience index (processor) 6.4. However, only very few motherboard is seen bundled with the i3-3227u at the date of writing.
