Default Will Protools LE work on my laptop? need your advice! thanks

alrighty so I'm considering purchasing the Mbox Mini http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com...ni-?sku=700498
and I'd like to know if you all think that i could run in on my laptop.. its a gateway mt3707, heres the specs http://support.gateway.com/s/Mobile/...4372Rsp2.shtml (It has 2GB's of Ram)
the biggest deal I can see is I'm not sure about the graphics.. they say protools needs a "dedicated graphics card" and I'm not sure if my mobile graphics would be usable? thanks in advance!

note: I'm figured out that my graphics aren't integrated into the northbridge Its a PCIe bus.. and 64MB of SDRAM but it shares with the system mem for a total of 256MB i believe

I’m going to stick my neck out and say no. PT requires a 7200 drive, and ext. firewire drive for your audio, (no firewire port) at least 2 gigs of ram.(only comes w/ 1) I’m sure it would be less money to find one with these qualifications than it would be to hot-rod this one.
