Actually, no. As of May 29, my laptop is probably more powerful than my 7-year-old desktop PC. I've yet to buy NWN2 but I doubt it can run on my laptop, which is not really configured for hardcore gaming.
I own a 1.6 Ghz Laptop with an AMD Turion chip (essentially behaves as a Dual Core under Windows XP). It has 2GB of memory and a separate NVidia graphics chipset.
The laptop is definitely not a gaming machine, however I've successfully played The Witcher at Medium Resolution (except in Act 3 where there are just too many AIs running). You shouldn't have a problem playing anything half-decent on your new laptop.
The key here is the graphics card. If it is an onboard one then you will generally have problems, but if you have a card (or chipset) that has a GPU (like mine) then you should not have problems.
