ianhad/mick: maybe instead of being negative flamer prudes, try not to comment. Honestly, you guys are cardboard personalities. Rather than represent common sense you bring nothing to the table but petty, abrasive irritation. NC-10 rocks for classic games and classic FPS games. Yes CS is too high, so what. You don’t get points for telling the guy something obvious.

i dont know that model but if its a new one and not the cheapest one you can buy, id imagine it would work. cut the graphics down in the options to make things better if there is abit of lag. enjoy counter strike source

It might, but why, if you want to play games have you bought a portable computer. They are not designed for gaming, but for work.

I have an NC10, and it’s rather laggy playing games. I think it might be possible at the lowest settings, but the FPS might be a bit laggy.

Do you find this amusing?
Atom processor can’t play good games.
Basically no video card.
RAM is too low.
Well maybe the RAM is ok, but otherwise it won’t play any real games.
