Hallo,

I'm thinking about getting a laptop mainly for

softsynths (PD, Csound, something like that), but would also like to be
able to use it for multitrack midi and audio recording.
I guess the answer to "what laptop to buy for softsynths" is "the faster
the better". Unfortunately I'm on a budget, but I'm very interrested in
what kinda performance I can expect from various processors, clock
speeds, amount of RAM etc (very vague, huh?). For instance I sac a
Fujitsu/Simens AMILO running 2.0 GHz Celeron with 256MB of RAM. Would
that be an option?
This should be way enough. I recently bought an Acer Travelmate with Celeron 1.2 GHz,
which feels fast using it with Pd. Well, I'm used to a 900 MHz Athlon, so this should
feel fast, but in general Linux can still run better on lower end machines than, say, Win
XP, I guess.
ciao
