Hi Roger,

I use a Lenovo S10 netbook, which runs SL for over one year now, 24 / 7, 
without a single crash. It has separate stereo in- and outputs, with 
standard 3.5 mm "stereo" jacks. The internal audio device supports true 
96 kHz sample rate. The timing jitter is about 700 nanoseconds which is 
quite large compared to an E-MU 0202 (which measures the GPS sync input 
with less than 40 ns standard deviation).
But for normal applications, the built-in audio device is more than 
adequate. And it's much better than the one in my 'larger' notebook.

Cheers,
    Wolf  DL4YHF .

> Sorry to ask this again (it is hard to look for past posts with no archive, unlike with Yahoo groups) but can someone recommend a small netbook that will run modes like WSPR , OPERA and packages like Spectran and Spectrum Lab without undue stress or issues? I am looking for a second machine to free up the main laptop and to use portable for VLF/LF and light beam work.
