Gateway M-6827 graphics and processor question

[shift788]

I am in the market for a new laptop. I need it to be cheap and able to play The Sims 3. I have stumbled across the Gateway M 6827 Its right in my price range and if it meets the min. system requirements then it will be the one I am going to get.

The gateway's specs are:
Core2duo T5750 (2.0ghz)
3gb pc2-5300 memory
Mobile Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 (384MB Shared)
Vista Home Premium

Sims 3 Min. system requirements:

Vista (Service Pack 1)
Processor: Pentium: IV 2.4 GHz / Athlon XP 2400+
Memory: 2.0 GB
Graphics: GeForce Go 6200 / Radeon mobile 9600
Graphics: 128 MB

My main concern is the graphics card will the Intel Integrated graphics be comparable to the graphics requirements of the game?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
