[studiorecorder] Re: using a netbook with SR

We use notebooks for editing, but not for recording.  I think the quality of 
your recording has a lot to do with the microphone and soundcard.

Hi All,

Has anyone used SR with a netbook pc such as the Asus 1000HE?  Most people 
say that the Netbook PC is not good with applications that require heavy 
processing.  Would the audio production suffer when using SR on a netbook to 
record?  Thanks.
Tim
