If you go down to your local computer swapmeet\market you should be able to find some stalls selling laptops for that price.

Hes probably not talking about 3D games, im guessing he wants to play and make 2D games on it. if you do want to play all of the new 3d games on your $200 laptop then....... good luck

"I just looked and there is one goin for 200 and it has 10 GB, 8mb video, 128 mb ram,800 mhz, usb, and watever ports there are on a laptop."

that should be okay for tgf or mmf games

but keep in mind that laptops are probably slower than normal pc with the same specs.

you should be able to play half life (1) on it.

You must be mistaking GHZ with MHZ, or you have a really shitty new comp. My comp now is a shitty 1.5 GHZ, still better than 800mhz but it goes soooo slow.

Ive tested so many click games on my old 133mhz and installed tgf on it and it works great ive also been able to run some 3d games on it too.Also anim8or woks great with it too.So I i know 800mhz will run games like vice city and mafia.Just look on the box of some the games you buy.be suprised to so what the minimum specs these games will run on.

800mHz won't run Vice City unless you have a decent 3D graphics card.

Warlords Battlecry III is a professional 2D game, that needs a a 500mhz cpu + 128mb ram. It also needs a 32mb video card, though.

800 Mhz is enough if you don't care about gfx. Just set the games to the lowest settings; you could play almost every game (cept Command & Conquer: Generals) smoothly.

However, since it's a laptop, I don't think it'll work too well. Laptops have this tendency to be half as fast as their desktop counterparts.
