Sorry, but they simply arn't. It may be designed to support games more easily, but laptops often have regulated power and heat - which limit the speed and potiential of the components. Whereas a desktop has a better airflow and constant connection to a supply, meaning it can add additional resources where needed.

Additionally, XP is a more stable gaming platform, than VISTA is. Don't forget, both the game and the OS are still in their baby steps.

Advertising like that, is the ignorance of the supplier/seller and the refusal to point out the error by the staff, while speaking with the customer.
