Is it for
your Eee? How much programs and gizmos is it really possible to
stuff inside it? I have the impression that it runs on steroids. :-)
Yeah, I'm using it on the EEE, which is why I'm a little worried about
trying to shove JAVA into this whole setup.
My backup plan is that I do have a little Mini-ITX board with a 64-bit
1.6Ghz processor in it sitting around, and if the EEE finally can't take it
anymore than I can use the ITX as a synth.
I have not tested it, but maybe it will be possible to install programs where
speed is not an issue on a USB-stick? ..or is it the RAM that might be the
problem?
Well.... I...... tried...... it...... and..... it's..... unusably...... slow.....
But it does look very nice, and quite probably what I need. Just not usable on a netbook,
which is what I carry around with me these days.
I'll have to see if nted or notedit might be coerced into doing what I want then, or
just carry around paper and pencil, the old-fashioned way.
