Hello Roger,

I use a Lenovo S10 netbook (with Intel Atom CPU), and am very pleased with it. It runs spectrum lab since over a year, continuously 24/7, without ever locking up despite continuous CPU load caused by the VLF hum remover (FFT-based filter). Even when the fan starts (which it does occasionally, at room temperatures above 22°C), it remains very silent. The only annoyance is when I have to restart it because the windoze update starts bugging me ;)

The onboard audio device is really nice, true sampling at 96 kS/sec, flat audio passband to almost 48 kHz signal frequency, and capable of stereo input. The "mic input" can be turned into a real "line input" through the configuration.

Cheers,
    Wolf .

Can anyone give me some advice on the suitability (or not) of small 1GHz RAM Atom 
based netbooks (available for about £189 new) for these modes/applications? I'd 
like something more power efficient that could be used out /P as well as at home.
