Stealth Bastard

Official site

From the dudes that made Explodemon!, its Stealth Bastard. They describe as "Metal Gear Solid meets Super Meat Boy," which isn't far off the mark. Not as fast paced as SMB but its a run and jump stealth platformer. Really quite good and its free to download. Comes with an editor so there should be some fun custom levels too.

Hmm.  What's up with those system requirements for a sidescroller?  Ah, well, I'll give it a try on this laptop anyway, see what happens.  Thanks for the link.

There seems to be a lot of dynamic lighting that has gameplay uses so that might explain the requirements.

Been enjoying this game quite a bit. Its very puzzely, gotta figure out how to get through the stages. The inclusion of the leaderboard is interesting. There is no time limit on completing each level but the faster you do it the higher on the leaderboard you end up. It makes you want to repeat the levels and do speed runs.

Custom levels are tiny to download and have their own leaderboard and user ratings. Pretty snazzy. I'm in the top 10 on several levels (custom and official).

Its kind of surprising this is free.
