I run my Amaya's on their own computer, so far all of the tech calls I have been on the customer runs DesignShop and the Amaya OS on the same computer with no reported problem. I used to run my Amaya's on a laptop a fair amount more powerful then what your laptop is but I think you will be ok with what you have, the best way to find out is give it a try. Russell Silva R. S.
