Photomechanic on a Netbook ?

[Brendan]

hey guys, what netbook(s) do you use?
it sounds interesting.

[Brendan]

whats about the HP 2133,  8.9" display with 1.280 x 768 resolution

The HP? Nice, metal, good screen, a colleague has it, but I would be wary of the CPU it has - Via C7 is in my opinion way underpowered for photos... Although, your mileage may vary... If possible, try it out - except the CPU it is very nice...

[Brendan]

underpowered for what? of course RAW editing may be a bit slower as with a quad core desktop.

which netbook do you prefer and what cpu type does this have?

is a Intel Atom N270 @ 1.6Ghz a lot of faster as the via?

The posts are one Year old 

I would like to buy a Netbook too next time (Mission: Sportsshooter, Out- Indoor, 150-180 shots JPG for Ingest)

-- Intel Core 2 Duo SP9300 CPU with 2,26 GHz, 2 GB RAM, Windows 7, 13,3"-Display with 1366 x 768 Pixel--

Does anyone have practical knowledge with Netbooks and PM last times?

Thanks -r-

I think it will work just fine.

Had Photo Mechanic installed on an old netbook with 1 gigaram, display was 1024x600.
Menus was "clipped" but still  I was able to use the menus, culling picture and extracting the embedded jpg in RAW-files was no problem.

One time I extracted about 2500 embedded jpg's with no problem.
Of course it took some time to finish

Version 4.6.1 and higher has been optimized to run on Windows Netbooks without any clipping of menus or dialogs.
