This page is intended to provide a reference for those looking to buy a notebook for running [[FlightGear]]. Unlike a desktop system, where you can just plug in a more or less recent NVidia card and expect things to work, laptops often don't have good [[OpenGL]] support. It is usually helpful, to specifically look out for so called "gaming" notebooks that come with hardware accelerated 3D support, as well as dedicated graphics memory. | This page is intended to provide a reference for those looking to buy a notebook for running [[FlightGear]].

The frame-rate quoted below is for the [[Cessna C172|C172P]] at [[San Francisco International Airport|KSFO]] with the default options. E.g. no command-line arguments, options selected in the launcher or .fgfsrc file. However, as most people don't run at 800x600, there is also an entry to record the typical frame-rates you see and your typical graphics settings. | The frame-rate quoted below is for the [[Cessna C172|C172P]] at [[San Francisco International Airport|KSFO]], 28R with the default options.
