I have EQ7 installed on my laptop and have no problems. Read the system requirements for the program then make sure you get a laptop that will handle it. I don't know what my laptop has cause I leave all of that technical stuff up to DH.

I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 1545 w/ Vista, 3GB--bought it a couple of years ago when WalMart had them on for $400. I have EQ7 installed plus pictures and games and the usual office programs. I have plenty of space.

I have a Macbook pro, with 1/2 of my hard drive as Windows 7. I run EQ7 on the windows side, and do everything else Mac. It is worth it for me--but most would rather stick with a windows platform (sorry for their troubles).
