Still putting alternative LAN or no Lan ideas on paper and not pushed
for time, since PCSpecialists just advised the new one isn't in Building
stage yet!
What I'm wondering about is whether I could still get away with using
two machines, whose sole link is the ADSL Router. If that alone
comprises a LAN, then please forgive my ignorance.
When running in FPI, I could reduce the display load by running
Servinfo on my Laptop; no LAN connection required.
On the "Flying" PC, I could accomodate, on the screens, FS9, FSNav and
ATOC. That would leave the offscreen loads from ASv6 and ATOC, that
could theoretically move to a LAN connected Laptop. However, with a dual
core processor, will I need to that? I know that FS9 itself isn't
written with dual processors, or HT, in mind but won't the system be
capable of running FS9 on one and the ancillary progs on the second
processor?
