Default What hardware specs are sufficient for blu-ray?

Hi. I was wondering if somebody with experience can tell me if my hardware is good enough to play bluray. I'm planning on getting an external bluray drive for laptop and want to make sure it will play without any problems, both on the laptop and by using my HDMI-out port. The laptop specs I have are: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 Ghz 64-bit with 2MB Cache, 4GB RAM, and 128MB GeForce 8400M GS. Is this good enough? I think it should be good enough but some people say you need a 256MB video card for best results. I'd like to know from those who have personally tried.

Also, I'm just wondering - what are the minimum hardware specs that anyone here has been able to get bluray to play well on?

Thanks. I appreciate it.
