    Will the Dell 700m run Maple Story?

    A 2D online game. I would think so, since nothing is in 3D.

    please check

    www.maplegloble.com for screen shot.

    It looks like super nintendo graphic like game.

    That's very good to know, and thanks for correct me.

    What is your 700m config? 512 MB ram? is that enough?

    Any slow down when playing maple story? Thanks

    I don't own a 700m unfortunately. No $750 coupons here :(

    Or else I too would of gotten it.

    I play it on my 4.5 year old AMD, and it's pretty crappy, and MapleStory works fine, so the 700m will do alot better.

    The system RAM won't really matter, though you should get 512MB to run Windows well.

    My 700m runs maple story, but not 100% smooth.
