I'm thinking about getting a laptop and wondering how well BFG casual games work on laptops. My husband (the retired IT geek) thinks the model we have in mind should have all the necessary capacity.

Sparkle,

I better move you to Glitches forum where the Tech experts can give you an idea of the requirements. Good luck.

Laptops work very well for Big Fish casual games.
Even those that have only Intel graphics will work, though with Intel graphics or other slow video cards a few games may have screen flicker unless you play in windowed mode.

Finally got around to trying an IHOG on my new laptop. It works great. I'm a happy camper.
