Now that I have realized I need more computing power, I am going to buy a new lap top. What processor and RAM combo are best for the FLEX1500 and future applications? Minimum requirements and realistic upgrade? Is it worth it to get a quad core? higher speeds? I asked at the EME conference and was told that my current Pentium 1.6G 2G RAM computer would "probably" do the job, and it does, except on CW transmit, my main microwave operating mode (with transverters). I know an Intel dualcore 2.2G and 3G RAM 64bit runs my FLEX1500 and PowerSDR v2.0.16 fine as I tested it with a friend's newer laptop. Thanks in advance for consideration. Happy New Year.
