Default P1999 on Netbooks

So I've been checking out the HP Stream 11 and it looks like a decent little throwaway laptop for 150-200 bucks. Could be convenient for couch-based Everquesting.

Anyone have firsthand experience playing P99 on tiny laptops with shitty processors like N2840, N3050, Atoms? Basically anything cheaper than a core i3?

I'm not expecting greatness, just wanna know if this old-ass game and maybe like some 2-dollar Steam specials are playable.

edit for bonus question: What about installing Ubuntu, wine, and p99 on Chromebooks? Toshiba Chromebook 2 looks p legit


for reference, I had a ~$300 laptop from 2011 with an AMD E-350 APU, and it was satisfactory enough performance for me to dual-box (on live)
