Is it just like it is with a desktop? Just buy a card and put it in it? Do some cards work with only some slots or will any graphics card made for a laptop work?

This is the laptop I have.

What would be a good graphics card for that?

if a laptop had a discrete graphics card, it could be changed (upgraded)?
