Good Notebook Game

Hey guys. I just bought a new Toshiba Satellite m45-s269 for school. I was wondering if any of you guys new a good game that I can play easily with a touch pad. I will probably play it inbetween class. I think thinkin' a stragey game would be good, like Age of Empires or something. This game doesn't have to be anything fantastic and can even be old, I'm actually also looking for an old copy of Warcraft II?..Any suggestions?

SPECS:
I have a 1.7 ghz Intel Pentium M with centrio with 512 mb and up to 128 mb of shared memory (will this be a huge problem not having a stand-alone video card?).

DO you think Diablo 2 would run on my computer? Easy to control with the touchpad?

Leisure Suit Larry!

I'd definitely pick up the Diablo battle chest (unles you already have it), and there are also 2 different Warcraft battle chests. The original (includes the first, second, and the expansion for second) and then the new one (WCIII bundle). Check out Starcraft too.

Hell, why not just look at the whole Blizzard catalogue. All their old games are classics.

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 and Tiberian Sun should play no problem. I saw a guy at school playing the former on his laptop the other day.

I agree, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 plays very well on most notebooks, I used to play it at school all the time.
