Would this laptop run Sims 3 + expansions smoothly?

I'm looking for a laptop to play Sims 3 and four expansion packs. After scouring the internet I got overwhelmed and then I found this one in my price range. Here's the link. Thanks!

Sure, but on lowest graphics and smaller maps.

What about a desktop? Would this work better?

A little better, heh, sure, but without a dedicated graphics card you can't really push for higher graphics.
