That is what I thought but I actually ran the win7 update compatibility wizard from the cloned hard drive under XP and it gave me a warning of not enough memory when there was 1Gb installed but only 900+Mb available so I assume it is some MS fine-print bullshit.
Yeah, I didn't mean to imply it would not install or run. After I had done the install I was curious as to why it was running like a turd. Then i actually checked the "requirements". It did make a pretty significant difference just going from 1 to 2gb.
1 Gb of ram does not meet the minimum requirements for Windows 7 as it requires 1 Gb of free memory. I know because I just upgraded the mom-in-laws laptop and had to upgrade the memory from 1Gb to 2 Gb. I would suggest keeping it an XP machine.
I used both bowls and flats depending upon the music but it does take a little while to acclimate to the different pads. I guess overall I used bowls a little more than flats, but then again I'm weird.
I really do not notice any difference in speed or accessability when using it on my netbook, where I should notice a difference, compared to the iMac or Mac mini.
The apple way is only better if you are a pome.
I agree with Dan here too. My netbook is like having a big portable drive with a useable screen. At my desk I can use a monitor bigger than any laptop screen. The portability has transformed my computer use as much as ripping my CD's to HD has transformed my music listening.
