I don't know anything about java( other than it sucks), but it sounds like you're gonna do just fine.
But, being the vista doesn't even support Java, I just don't know. It doesn't have anything to do with performance and memory. I can assure you that.

Status: offline 		Thanks guys.  I was afraid that this program would not run well on my system.  I will just wait until I upgrade to a newer system.  I am running XP on my "old" laptop.

Status: offline 		The new patch that will come out shortly has good performance improvements that will enable these machines to play well. However, CEAW has 2 options when you start the game, the "low" option for 512 MB user and "high" option for those with 1 GB RAM or more.

That said, if you run the high option with an old machine then the game will we a bit slower

Same as with all 3D games if you have a low spec machine and toggle all graphics options to "max" then the game will be more sluggish.
