The only caveat is that you should not think of it as a normal 1.6 Ghz machine. even though it runs at 1.6Ghz, it has far less processing power than my 1.6 Ghz Turion. For doing Live recording or playing soundfonts via Midi it is fine, where I run into trouble is with the live effects and synths like Zyn... That is what I meant by managing your expectations.
In terms of performance this is really more like an 800Mhz PIII. My Acer has 1.5 GB of Ram btw. I should also note that I have not tested the RT kernel against the Atom. I have had a few odd issues with the Atom that I expect will get ironed out with successive kernel versions. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIrwgewRXgH3rKGfMRAunGAJ9zgdIgjY28w0+hS1Nv3zmWt2+IeQCgoQZG QE9p5zZDyGmjFl3Fe5AQ23M= =6RUI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
