Ive always used desktop, and recently the nice hd screen conked out after 12 mnths..so bought a cheapo 5kg oldskool screen..
question is...im moving.. with minimal weight required... i checked out laptops at argos/ kinda places........
some called 'notebooks'.. some called laptops..with similar stats....Do these £180-£200 ish things run soma ok if i buy one?
thx for any advice

WOAH!

Shouldn't be too much of a problem mate you have to think computers 15 years ago use to run soma so almost anything today should do fine , iv also heard of people running it on a tablet.

if you have any concerns just up your budget a little

Chronos

WHOAH .. hehe thx... hoping for confirmation of £200 ish is cool... im like moving bigtime.... no job..no accommo... rucksak kinda thing..whoahhh !

anything will pretty much run soma, dont expect to run 100s of clients on one go, but 2 clients at a time will be managed by any laptop costing £200+ easily :)

cheers ta..2 is plenty for me

check the resolution on netbook / notebook. but yea it shud run soma no probs

i used to use a 1ghz netbook and hook up to tv when i wanted to

My works laptop cost about 250 A Lenovo touch or something like that. Runs 2 clients fine. Internet is normally my issue

No not all laptops will run Soma

all laptops with windows will run soma. i have yet to come across 1 that wont. unless native resolution is lower than 800x600 o_O

I find them mini laptops don’t work well with Soma at all

ahh netbooks. yea they screen is small for it but they do work. as i said i used to just vga it to tv to play

Just make sure you don't buy a laptop with Windows that has the name 'RT' in it. Most laptops ship with the OEM version of Windows 10 at the moment which doesn't have a problem with Soma, Windows 8.1 is fine generally for Soma also.

Specs wise, you have nothing at all to worry about across any of new machines from those stores. As someone else said, this games requirements havn't really changed in the 15 years or so its been around.

I have what I thought was a laptop but it turns out that it's a note . Soma runs fine but for the fact that I can't reprogram the f keys .
