What are the best laptops (and cheapest) to play 2nd life on?
requirements to play 2nd life in the cpu are:Operating System: Windows XP (Service Pack 2)
OR Windows 2000 (Service Pack 4)
NOTE: Second Life does NOT currently support Windows Vista
Computer Processor: 800MHz Pentium III or Athlon, or better
Computer Memory: 256MB or better
Video/Graphics Card**:
nVidia GeForce 2, GeForce 4mx, or better
OR ATI Radeon 8500, 9250, or better
… one of any brand which meets and perferrably exceeds the system requirements. Cheapest will vary dramatically based on what is available for you to buy. I would NOT run SL on the requirements you list by the way, it would be unbearably laggy. Go for recommended, not required, system requirements.
“PC Minimum System Recommendations:
Internet Connection*: Cable or DSL
Computer Processor: 1.6GHz Pentium 4 or Athlon 2000+ or better
Computer Memory: 512MB or better
