  1. I appreciate the links to the poster with the 1201 experience and to the Anandtech dm1z review. The 1201 poster makes it sound like the 1215 could play with minimal settings. The Anandtech review suggests that the 1215 and dm1z have similar gaming performance. However the charts in the dm1z review suggest that sending an extra $100 and moving up to a 13-14" laptop with a better graphics card might make me happier in the long run. Thanks for your help!
  2. I'm looking for a very light weight system that will allow me to play COH when I'm on the go. I understand that I will have to turn the graphics options way down for the game to run on a less expensive portable.

    Two options that I've considered are the ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1215N and the HP Pavilion dm1z.

    ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1215N-PU17-SL with Intel Dual Core Atom D525 (1.8GHz); Nvidia ION 2 graphics with 512mb dedicated video memory

    HP Pavilion dm1z with AMD Dual-Core FUSION Processor E-350 (1.6GHz, 1MB L2 Cache)+AMD Radeon(TM) HD 6310M Discrete-Class Graphics

    Does anyone have any experience with running COH on either of these systems? Any idea if either or both will run the game reasonably on low graphics settings? Any other options in the 3.5 lb and $500 range?

    Thanks for your help!
