And for Neal's attention, if I were to look at Dell laptops machines, is there any that stands out (or are they all toast)? I run WinXP on Latitude D630 and it is just about man enoug to run my Flex3000 and N1MM, but fire anything else up and audio breaks up with or without VAC.
Do we have a list/grid of off-the-shelf model laptops on the wiki or elsewhere with "ok/not okay for Flex 15000/3000/500 etc? That would be great if we did.
