Are "lower end" computer systems immune to the effects of smoke rounds?

Not completely. I see smoke as 2D, and from a lot of angles it can sort of slide away into nothing. Very few angles can I see smoke fully formed.

I could see through smoke on my old laptop.  If i looked straight at it there was a 2D effect but I only had to change my head position and it disappeared.

Yes that may be true i dint have time to post link to other thead. but Belial and GReric say its a Vista problem.....and admit to being able to do it.... My counter point is i doubt low end systems are running Vista.... AS of yet only one person has posted computer specs so we can see whats going on.
The hand full of guys that ive seen that actually practice this technique are all in the same squad.

It hasn't Yet. But my bet is he just wants the Witch Hunt  :lol    :noid :noid

And Yes I use to be able to see threw the Smoke when I Zoomed in on the Old PC running XP Pro.
If there was more then one smoke canister is was hard, with one it was kinda easy.
