Cause me I've been playing Minecraft for not to long maybe a week or a bit longer. But what makes me want to quit this game is the lag. I get it on any internet acesses I use even the most fastest ones that I get a Green Bar in when I play Black Ops. I'm using a Netbook with 2 GB RAM. But I'm going to change on the 19th of June cause that's my B-day. Aside from that are there any lag reducing tips? Because I have tried setting Priorities high, Cp1 Usage and everything else.

You don't have a GPU. Basically, nothing can be done.

You most likely don't have a dedicated graphics card. 2GB ram is enough to run Minecraft.

Try the browser version of the game, rather then the downloaded version.

"Green Bar in when I play Black Ops. "

Does that measure framerate or latancy?  Or something else?

In Black Ops, the bars measure latency.  Under 200 MS is 3 bars that are green.  Under 100 MS is a full "4 bar" connection that is a lighter shade of green.  To answer the OP, you're playing on a netbook.  Can't really do much as they aren't very powerful.  You'll want a computer with a dedicated GPU and a faster processor than whats in your netbook, I assume its an Atom.  Not very good for gaming, more for simple internet tasks.  Do you need a laptop? If not, you get a lot more performance for your money going desktop.

Edited with more info. If you ask me it's a pretty good smaller laptop I don't know why Minecraft Lags for me so much. Any tips.
It may be that I don't have a GPU but I read that Intel made GPU's into CPU's so I think I have one because it does have Intel on it

Game is too CPU-dependent for your CPU.
