This is another reason for the success of WoW in my opinion... no matter how crappy your machine is it will run, unlike a lot of other MMOs.
WoW runs at the same framerate on my laptop and desktop, and the only difference is a tiny bit more eye candy and slightly faster load times on the desktop. My laptop cost $850 in September 2008.
If I cared to play a source game on my laptop, I could, and get a totally okay FPS in it too, which is a selling point.
Crysis is a tech demo that comes with a free (mediocre) game.

This is slashdot, not 4chan, but I approve of this copypasta.
Your capacity for puns is astounding!
Don't put too many of them in series, or the capacity will drop.
