If anyone has experience with it I'd be interested in hearing.
I am running on an N53S Asus ultra laptop with intel i7 and Geforce GT 630M-2GB and it runs fine. I have noticed it is a little slower than my gaming tower due to the internet limitations on wireless links.

I am waiting for the new i9 quad core and the new GTX 780 to come out (sometime in the next few months) because the 20nm technology runs cooler, uses less power (one charge gives 8 hours play) and fits neatly into the new super-ultra laptop style. The only limitation is screen size, which depends on your preference.

ARR is designed to run on PS3, so it demands less of your computer than FFXIV-1. If you can run FFXIV-1, ARR will run just fine. I don't know about the ARR HD version. I expect it will run fine on the specs posted as minimum requirements on the Beta Test Application site.
