Will video games work on my netbook?
I recently bought a disk drive for my Acer Eee PC with Intel Atom processor. I wanted to buy some games like Orange box to play on it, 1: is windows 7 too new to play a game from like 2000 on? and 2: will my netbook be able to handle the graphics?

Yes you can play games from 2000 on Win7 but, you'll have to match the specs carefully.
The older games, from the days of 1GHz cpu and 32mb of video ram, may do well but the closer you get to current games the less likely you are to be able to run games. Orange Box games require a 1.7 GHz processor and a DX8 video card. Also, what is the resolution of the netbook's screen?
