This morning I had the bad surprise that my current notebook would not turn on...
Apart from the swearing and cursing (it's a machine I use also for my job), I got back my old notebook. A piece of hardware dated 2005.
Well, as long as I can bear 1024x768 resolution and an average of 9fps, I can still play Rift!
All praises to Trion!

The specs??

Dell Latitude D60
Pentium4M - 1,73GHz
1,2 GB RAM (400Mhz)
ATI Mobility Radeon X600 - 256MB dedicated VRAM
60GB Sata HD 5400rpm

Graphics are laggy and a bit stuttering, but still, I can play!
