If anybody tries to call you square
You just look 'em in the eye, tell 'em you don't care!
If you don't want to be a crazy fool
You better study real hard and stay in school!

Crosswind technique: "Using your peripheral vision, react to body movements, gasps, groans, and shouts from the other side of the cockpit, and always remember that it's better to be lucky than good."

There's a benchmark in Counter Strike: Source, but you need CS:S for it ofcourse :P. CS:S runs like a charm on my dad's (at 800x600 if I am not mistaking) so maybe you can compare the two laptops :).

I'm very anxious to see how it'll run on my laptop. I can run Doom 3 just fine, so I guess it won't be a problem *knock on wood*

I payed $70 or $80 for it, can't remember exactly :P (had to pay taxes (!) too)...

It's not the question wether or not the game will run, it's the question how good it'll look on your system :). Because that's about 50% of the reason why somebody wants to play the game. the other 50% is for storyline and just because everybody else is talking about it :).

OK... what the fuck...

I installed everything, registered, subscription stuff went OK, but now when I click to start it just says 'preparing to play Half Life 2' and then that disappears. It doesn't do a goddamn thing.
