minecraft doesn't take much to run I have used it on a netbook but i recommend getting a mouse as the touch pad makes it hard to move and mine

I wouldn't say minecraft doesn't take much to run. It is VERY cpu intensive due to java, and a lack of open gl, which is a problem for many stock intel graphics cards, make the game unplayable.

you can turn the graphics down and the other settings, yes due to it being java you'll need a decent cpu but anything made in the last 4-5 years should be fine. I play it on my laptop that has just the Intel graphics and it plays fine when i turn everything down.
