ORIGINAL: wdolson The game should run fine on most computers built in the last 10 years. The only real bottleneck is memory. If the OS is a 32 bit Windows, I recommend getting 4GB of RAM or as close to that as possible. With a 64 bit Windows, you can install a lot more memory. The game itself will use between 0.5 and 1GB of RAM, but you probably need RAM for other things too (like the OS). Bill Bill’s thoughts are very good. CPU speed doesn’t matter; RAM does. You will want 2 GB min. There’s not much difference between 2 GB and 8 GB RAM, in terms of WiTP AE. Maybe it obtains in other applications. My laptop is a “refurbished” HP with blah, blah, pimple, blah, and a big screen, and 8 MB RAM, for $600. In many ways, it’s better than my ’professional’ desktop. I am one of the game developers and have never had an issue with anything 1 GB or over. There’s gazillions of them out there for $200-$500 and they can do some other applications, as well. Try Best Buy for yesterday’s “refurbished” items. Cheapness is a good thing, so long as you know what you are looking for.
