How would this do?
« on: October 17, 2003, 01:01:52 PM »
Is this kind of laptop that would make for a good recording?  I wouldn't use a whole lot cause just seems to clunky.  I was thinkinh i could throw in a bigger hard drive.  Is 64mb and 333mhz enough?  Thanks

333mhz should be enough processing power, i would upgrade ram to at least 128 if not 256, and definitely you'd want a bigger hard drive.
battery life will be an issue, you'll need external power.  and under 2" thick is not really slim...just a thought.  i have an old satellite that still works so you may do well getting this cheap and upgrading it.

Win98 + 256 = okay.

Win98 + 512 = some strange shit.

There's a reason why its considered a consumer OS... No consumer in their right mind would want to run something with that much of a memory requirement.
