Are Notebooks Good For Sims 3?

I want to get a LENOVO Flex 10 Touch Mini Notebook PC but I'm unsure as to whether or not notebooks are any good for playing Sims and other casual games on. I don't want to use up all the memory inside it just on sims, is it a good idea to get this?

This is the product:

I went to the link but I couldn't find any specs… All I would suggest is make sure it has an i5 processor and a dedicated video card and 4gb of RAM and you're good to go.

I wouldn't recommend that mini notebook when you can get other laptops for cheaper and more ram. I'd suggest at least 4GB of ram and a intel processor with at least 2GHz of speed. Intel HD Graphics would do too.
