How exactly can a netbook overheat from playing a a very low-requiring game? The EEE 2G Surf (weaker than the EEE in the video) has about 512 mb ram, intel 900 mhz CPU (underclock to 600).
And that's a LOT more than Q3A needs to play, which is: 64 mb RAM, pentium II 266mhz, graphics: 4 MB
Compare it to the EEE pc's specs...
It uses a very low amount of power in the processor and RAM. It could only overheat if you played it for 6 hours, and your battery would run out LONG before that.
Really? Mine broke down as i was playin fallout tactics (sys. req: 64mb ram, 300MHz graphic 4mb) but it was a f***king acer shit! (Aspire One 1.6ghz, 160gb...)
Never buy acer guys, please do me and yourself that favor!!

I wouldn't do that... Netbooks can fastly turn too hot and destroy themselves!
It works for 5minutes but not for an hour!

How long have you been playing it?
It could have just been a coicidence. Nothing lives forever, and that includes notebooks as well.

I had just bought it a month ago and i played FOT for about 8 hours on it (not in one piece, more like 2h, 2h, 2h...)
It's only an acer laptop that breaks down after a month! Dont buy that crap!
Now i got an Asus gamer pc and I play Fallout 3 and ut3 on it without problems :-))

Acer? That's a completely different thing. This video is about an Eee PC.
By the way, I don't actually own an Asus EEE PC, but I've just recently bought a 1000HA from Amazon. Waiting for it to come in my mail.

I got 40 FPS, at 800x600 High Quality (this is on the original Eee, probably would run faster with newer Intel Atom CPU)
