My roomate just got a new laptop (p4 2.1 Celeron 256 ram) Not the best in the world but its ok.
He got Thief III and after installing he noticed that the box says 'Not for Laptop Use'. Anyone know what this is about?
If there a way around it?

I doubt it. All I know is that they decided to only get the game to work on the newer Window OS's and get nice and buddy buddy with Microsoft in doing so.

Like I said Moge, the company has really upset some customers with their last few games. They only did enough work so the game works alright on the newer video cards and OS's to please other companies. So I wouldn't be suprised if you couldn't get it to run on a laptop either.
