Both the original game as well as the newer version distributed through Steam will work on a netbook. Installation is problem-free with both versions. The game runs smooth and with an attached USB mouse be prepared to put up a decent frag count.
When Quake 3 Arena first came out, widescreen monitors were just a dream in the sleeping minds of gamers. Your netbook likely has a widescreen monitor and runs at a widescreen resolution (1024 x 600 in the case of our test unit). To set the game to a custom resolution you need to get into the command console. This is easier than it sounds. When you get to the main menu of the game, press the ~ key on your keyboard. Once in the command console you will need to enter the following three commands and then restart the game:
- r_mode -1
- r_customwidth 1024 (or whatever width you'd like)
- r_customheight 600 (or whatever height you'd like)
