Has anyone got an Ultra Portable computer (the latest version of the Tablet PC) ? If so, does DBPro & normal games work on it ?

I don't have one personally, but I know that DX programs run. I can't find out if they have a graphics processing unit, but if they don't it'll very slowly in most cases.


Since the other one was scaring you guys so much...

The only one I know of has an Intel GMA 900 graphics processor - hopefully its a fairly decent thing, although it has no hardware T&L

My guess would be that it could not run too fast anyways, because it would get to hot.

No, but it should still be possible, with a fair few.

Don't know if this is a useful comparison, by my 2.4Ghz Celeron MiniPC with and Intel 845G Chipset *barely* runs a simple dbpro game.
