My laptop; "Old" Dell Inspiron 5000, PIII 600Mhz, 8mb vram, 384mb sdram ecc (512 mb max)
Anyhow, nowadays, you get better laptops with 1 gb ram and 64 mb graphics card. You better check if the card in question is good for maya.

I agree with everyone else that a laptop is okay to run Maya on.
P.S. I'm just so excited about this I have to tell everyone here. My friend has access to the High Performance Computing Center here at Texas Tech. If I remember correctly they have an SGI 2000 series server there just begging to be used by anyone. what makes it so appealing is that apparently they have Maya on it. He's talked to some people and their getting me sponsored so that I can have unlimited access to the supercomputer. Plus my friend has been doing CG work for about 4 years now and has offered to help me develope my modeling/animation skills. I'm so excited!
