Home machine is Late 2009 27-inch iMac with 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 12GB RAM. I would think if they've got a newer system than I do they'll have no trouble. I'm hoping that's due to some bugs I see crop up in the logs and that it will smooth out after a couple patches. Also, 1.2 has improved those worst case scenarios a bit, but overall the game runs a little more poorly than 1.1.3. Though I guess a kid might be less forgiving. It's manageable and, at least for me, doesn't represent the majority of my gameplay. But I wouldn't say that should scare anyone away. At those times the performance can drop significantly and it gets a bit frustrating. The real issue is when I'm working with one or more very large stations or bases with lots of vessels about. Some frame dropping and slow down on a minority of launches until I get up a few kms. I'm running on the 2-3 year old machine shown below and it's mostly great.
