Looking pretty good with a nice cheap price tag, my only concern would be how for to the left the touchpad is

while using WASD you might have trouble avoiding the touchpad with your palm, but that computer should run RO just fine

Lol are you joking no way you can run RO with this computer.

Would be nice to be able to play back with us thought.

I don't necessarily think it will run higher end graphics, but I will be surprised if it doesn't run RO at all.

No. Video card is too crappy.
You'll be lucky if you can play on shaders 2 with this integrated chipset.

Video Card: ATI Radeon HD 4250 Graphics

In (very very) brief for ATI and Nvidia graphic cards:
- first digit means series, higher = newer
- second digit means target market level, 2 = lowest entry level, 8 = best gaming performance, usually 5-6 is enough for regnum at max settings.

You can check this to compare graphic cards:

If it doesn't run well ill just upgrade the card. It's not a big deal RO isn't my only need for a new computer

I use my IGP card Radeon HD 3200 to play Regnum. In Fixed shader mode with OpenGL renderer I get about 30 fps. Your card is slightly faster. If you use DirectX renderer you can maybe play in shader 2 or 3 mode with decent fps.

My wife has that Video card - and I have played RO on her laptop, it runs shader 2.0 just fine...
