MHz for MHz, even not looking at the other CPU available, a Core Duo 2 is a lot faster than a stock P4. I'm guessing that your laptop would be fine. But to be sure, contact their technical support ... Probably a bigger issue would be to make sure that the graphics card is up to snuff. -- Doug McLaren, [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.

Re: [RCSE] FS1 requirements
Dave, not all applications can take advantage of the second third or even 4th core in todays CPU's. When looking at minimum requirements it can be wise to consider the overall speed of each core as the max CPU speed you may utilize. In general games are notoriously bad at utilizing second + cores. Geek speak aside, unless someone from FS1 tells you that the program will use a second core/CPU then assume it wont and meet the requirements by making sure that any dual core+ is at the required speeds. After that make sure that your new system has an NVidia video chipset in it. Not sure if the Nvidia 8800 comes in a laptop but I would go for that if I could.

[RCSE] LSF Response To Seattle Soaring Problem
Each member of the King County Council received a copy of the following: Dear Councilman , You are receiving this message to urge you, as a member of the King County Council, to please do everything you can to prevent the Seattle Area Soaring Society from losing its current flying site in 60 Acres South. In these days of increasing urban expansion, flying sites are becoming more difficult to find and keep. Other leisure activities competing for existing sites only increase this difficulty. Radio-controlled soaring is an environmentally friendly activity that provides hours of pleasure to young and old alike. Over 8000 members, worldwide, of the League of Silent Flight participate in and enjoy this hobby. On behalf of those members and our friends in the Seattle Area Soaring Society, we, the officers of the League of Silent Flight, ask your assistance in this matter. Respectfully submitted, Mike Stump, President Ed Wilson, Vice President Jim Thomas, Treasurer Jim Deck, Secretary
