You can still play with 256 RAM, as long as you have a decent graphics card and play in 800x600 or 1024x768...

Indeed, I find it amusing that Kerm is concerned about finding a tablet that will run BL. Blockland is probably the least graphically intensive 3D game possible (well, not quite, but almost). I think Kerm gets confused between graphically intensive and computationally intensive because he's always hosting -- not only does his comp have to handle the strain of being the server, but his maps are GIGANTIC. That means he's getting slowdown from massive amounts of data transfer, not graphical intensity.

True, true. I've found that ~700MHz, ~128MB ram machines can't play it at all though.

Yup, that's not your computer, just your graphics driver. What's the make and model of your graphics card?

I have no clue, since I got it for free from the college where my Dad works.
