Just throwing a question out there, I've got a bet going, but could you play WoW on a laptop, I've never tried but my friend says you probably could, I say a laptop wouldn't be able to hold up for long without crashing or something, what do you think?

Its possible to use a laptop, but it would need to be more of a gaming laptop. I use to use my normal gateway laptop but I could never go into major cities because of the lag, but that was just an issue with having a low quality graphics card and other such components that go along with gaming.

I've been playing WoW on a laptop for the past couple years, with no problem. Currently I use an Acer 6930 and it was about 800 bucks, a little less, and I get no framerate issues, even in Dalaran. The only thing I don't like with laptops is the trackpad, so I use a bluetooth mouse when it's heroic/raid time

I'm using a laptop and i'm not liking it, i prefer a desktop. Might make one sometime in winter during boxing day and all that. laptop + wow = not fun. Might work, but not fun.

There's nothing fundamentally different about a laptop that would make WoW run any differently on one. As with all computers the specs are what determines it's ability to run a given application or game. Will WoW run on a cheap, poorly configured laptop? Maybe not, but a similar desktop would also not run it.

I play wow on my laptop but its a gaming laptop from dell XPS series so yea a laptop can run WoW but like any other comp it depends on wht's inside lol :)

I'm playing on a laptop a Dell XPS M1530 I used to play on a Dell Presario and i have not had a single problem with it love that i can take it to a coffee shop and grind and not have to be indoors yes its a small monitor 17" but after a while you get used to it.

I use a Lenovo ThinkPad T61p laptop which ran me about 2k but it's definitely a great laptop. I play WoW on it all the time with no problems. I'd say the only problem you'd have on that while playing WoW would only be the limitations of your internet connection.

sure, but with desktops you can upgrade it to the latest graphics card, ram, etc, but with laptops you're stuck with it.

Not true, there quite a few upgradeable laptops. even some of the crappy 500 dollar ones cnan be upgraded. at least my first one was.

I play on a XPS 1730 with dual graphics cards with all options cranked to max - it is legendary.

Im playing on a laptop atm and it works great! it costed about 500 dollars. (Im from swe so dont really know how much it is in dollars.)
