It would be wonderful for some of you techy types to guide me toward a particular laptop that could handle playing EVE. It sure would be nice to travel and play EVE once in awhile. I've been on a month long vacation, and am suffering withdrawal.
please, pretty please.

I use an Asua M6800Ne laptop with:
2000 MHz , Mobile Intel Pentium-M 755 (Centrino)
1024 MB DDR RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 (64MB DDR-RAM)
Runs just perfect at 1600x1200 with maximum details.
It can even run Half-life 2 and Doom 3 without any sweat,
so I can only recommend it :)

I've been using an HP Pavilion zd7000 for almost a year as my main (only) Windows machine. Connected to 17" monitor and keyboard when at home, but also works fine on the road.
Has a nice wide screen and plentyl of power.
I'd call it a portable, rather than a laptop since it is heavy, but doe the business. I assume there will be newere, faster versions of the same out by now.

Avoid any non ATI/Nvidia laptop graphic accelerator like the plauge.. My beefy 2.6ghz Pentium 4 (desktop class) laptop, with an integrated SIS650 graphics accelerator, can play eve quite fine, if you like looking at white space and graphics glitches galore. Oh and when a drone comes on screen it crashes.
Suffice to say, you need a support graphics card to play eve, literally.. It's not a issue of them being too slow, it's a compatability issue.
My next laptop is going to definantly have a real graphics card in it.

Yes, its very important you stay away from the 'offbrand' video chipsets.
SiS, Intel Integrated 'Extreme' Graphics, the offtype ATI chipset that is basically like the intel and sis chipsets and is very horrendous running games on.
Stay with ATI Mobility Radeon, Nvidia Geforce Go, ftw. I myself use:
eMachines m6805
AMD Athlon 64 Mobile 3000+
512 mb of ram
ATI Mobility Radeon 9600
800$
I bought it refurbished off tigerdirect. Have yet to encounter a problem with this laptop. Only problem ive found which is true for all of this model, is that the hinge area has *****ed, i dont foresee and problems of this but its more cosmetic than actual problem.

I've got a laptop already (a Presario 700) and I'm currently looking for a decent graphices card, as oppposed to the S3 Graphics Twister K-Compaq which prevents EVE from loading at all...which is nice.
Have been looking at ATI Radeon 9600 and 9700 as previously mentioned in this post, but does anyone know if a ATI Radeon 7000 will work?
In fact, how the hell do I know if the graphics card will fit in the laptop as opposed to my desktop....
Cheers for any help.

Very few laptops have an upgradable graphics card, infact I'm only aware of the Alienware brand that offers that capability.
The only way to upgrade the GFX card is to replace the laptop

I am glad I stumbled across this thread. I am going out tonight with the missus to buy a laptop. This will be my first one, and it is mostly so I can play EVE. So having that capability is extremely important. I am conteplating the Gateway 7236GX Athlon. It comes with an ATI Radeon 9550 card. I hope this will do the trick. The salesman I spoke to last night said it ran Halflife 2 very well. I do not know how that stacks up to EVE graphics-wise.
If anyone has any specific comments about this machine please let me know. I plan to buy it in about 8 hours.
Just me,

I think the general rule is...if it can run HL2, Doom3 and its ilk okey...then you've got yourself a decent EVE machine :)

It's damned hard to find laptops from high street vendors that include intergrated graphics support. Best bet is to hunt around for ones that are designated "Media Centres" or the like.
For example, my g.f's laptop has a built-in nVirida GeForce5600 but cost just shy of ú2000. Unless you can get a decent custom built laptop, you'll struggle

Yeah I have a problem with my Laptop .. EVE freezes the *card* two three second after I undock, it works fine in station/on the character slection screen, not sure what might be wrong with it. I have ATI Radeon 9100 Mobility on Toshiba Satelite A70. Funny is that the Exodus beta worked fine ...

I have a Compaq NC6000 that works just fine and its only a $1,700 (US) notebook.
EVE isn't nearly as demanding as most MMORPGS released in the past two years.
The trick when using Mobile Pentium is to have it plugged in. If you are running on batteries the processor is very slow (for games like this) regardless of your settings.

I've got an E-Machines M5310 with the AMD 2400+ (I'm pretty sure) and an ATI IGP card. It doesn't run that fast, but it is very playable. Any of the new one have AMD 64-bit processors and would like run the game like a champ. It's a great laptop, I've dropped it like a dozen times and haven't had any problems, except for a few *****s in the case :)

I run eve on a dinosaur and it works fine, I affectionately refer to it as my CRAP-top. Pentium 3 1.3ghz with a geoforce 2 go(32mb) Nvidia chipset and 512 mb of ram. Now you dont exactly get the full effect of a higher end system, but for a computer that I bought from gateway 4 years ago, it runs missions mines and does everything I need it to very well. In your case I would definately go for the non-integrated graphics card as I think that and alot of defragging and system maintenance that keeps mine alive.

That ATI x700 mobility is really awesome; between that and anything above a Pentium M 1.6 or any Athlon 64 Eve will run great with everything turned on.

From experience I've noticed that a laptop with a P3 running at 1.2 Ghz with 512 mb of RAM and with Intel Extreme Graphics runs EVE pretty well 9 - 13 FPS in-flight 30+ in station with all special effects off not including Audio being turned off is bareable but it could get better with more RAM. This is based on a Dell Latitude C400 Laptop with the following Specs:
Pentium 3 @ 1.2 Ghz
512 Mb SDRAM PC133 (2x256mb)
Intel Extreme Graphics (64mb Shared)
(I believe it takes up to 225mb of Ram when the system is maxed out at 1 gb)
20 gb Toshiba HDD
USB 24x10x24CD/RW 8xDVD-ROM Drive
Intergrated Sound
Intergrated Ethernet
Running Windows 2000 Professional
And as a side note I've noticed that any system Desktop or Laptop with Intel Extreme Graphics runs EVE very well provided that the Video takes at least 64mb of shared RAM.
Hope this helps

I have an Acer Travelmate 4102DDR2.
1,73Ghz Centrino
1GB Memory
ATI Mobility Radeon X700 64MB
1280x800 15,4" widescreen
EVE runs fine on this machine, it's my main pc to play it on. Sometimes I connect it to my 19" widescreen (1440x900) TFT. It can handle that without a problem too.
