[LAU] A netbook which is good for Linux Audio

[Aaron Krister Johnson]

My main computer at this point is a netbook, an ASUS EEEPC, 1000HE. It does
pretty well, although I think the IRQ setup is less than optimal, since the
onboard soundcard shares IRQ with the video board....speaking of which, are
such things now configurable in a modern kernel, or are we stuck with
hardware arrangements, however unfortunate, on such machines?

For more mission-critical RT work, etc., I use an outboard sound interface,
a Lexicon Lambda, which works well, and the USB port performance and IRQ,
etc. are solid, and conflict-free....
