Yes, be advised that it may catch fire when you attempt to actually "play" the "game".

You can play anything on a laptop as long as you have the golden ruby encrusted dagger and the blood of a young virgin.

True
You got Windows XP? You need it for the demo, so I doubt that will change for the full game.

It's lousy anyway, why bother?
It's AoE2 with muskets and a slightly better camera.

Say...You wouldn't happen to be a Virgin, would you?

Anyone mentioning laptops, ruby-encrusted daggers and the blood of virgins in one sentence is automatically a virgin.

yeah, i would think that would be fine. i've got an HP 3.2 ghz, 128 mb ati card, and 512 mb ram. so virtually the same specs as you just i dunno about our graphics cards, either way the minimum requirements for the demo are well below all of that and the demo plays very well on my machine, even with the video settings on the game set to medium. you could always download the demo and give it shot, but i'm sure you'll be fine. except there was a bug that doesn't like the widescreen format on laptops, but theres a work around.
the game is sweet, but the demo is a bit buggy (horizontal floating priests and such). I'm sure the game will be much better. If you liked the previous aoe's you'll love this, all of your favorite aspects are there but it's just been made beautiful and more fun. i've pre-ordered already.
you should be ok on your machine.
Good.

It's a 64mb IGP 345m, and it uses shared memory (so it brings my memory down to the low 400s)

You'll definitely be able to run both, dude, though AoE III's gameplay is very stale (it's just AoM without the mythological stuff).

I liked AoM :p
But, just trying to make sure that people understand this, but I oly have 448mb of ram after the video card takes out it's alloted space.
And my vid card is the equiv of a 8500/9000 or so.
