I was wondering how hard it is (or is it poissible at all) to manually upgrade the graphics card thinkpads. Any input will be appreciated.

The graphic card is part of the mainboard and cannot be upgraded.

It is possible to upgrade the MB to the max offered in the formfactor - that's what I did after a water spill hosed my MB.
Upgrading the MB may also upgrade your LAN connection as well.
On my T40, I went from the ATI 7500 16MB graphics to the ATI 9000 32MB graphics (or was it 128mb? Who cares.)
I play RTS games, and I noticed a big improvement. Never upgraded the processor.
