Hi Ray.
Yes this also describes my usage. It allows me the convenience of not having to
carry around a cumbersome package, while still allowing me to say, edit the
fingerings or carry out proof-reading of a composition for my publisher, if i

Hi David.
Good points made. I would be buying a netbook for ultra-portability. Extra
equipment in the travelling sense would not be necessary (i assume most
experienced users will have the sounds in their heads and not need speakers or
processing devices). My thoughts about extra add-ons are pur
Have you thought of running Finale Notepad on a netbook?
If all you are doing is sketching, that might be all you need, and
would not tax an Atom processor at all.

If it runs Windows, it will run Finale. A lot of netbooks run
Linuxso that might have been some of the confusion.
Though if you do venture down this route, the Dell Netbooks are an
excellent choice. And they run Windows XP, so, it will run Finale.
Though the Atom processor is really slow so do

My question wasn't "What's the best portable computer for Finale?" but
what's the smallest.

Instead you have to use "Adobe PDF" from the PDF creation popup in the

Unfortunately there do seem to be problems: Eg, I don't seem to be able

String players can very quickly detect deficiencies in string writing by

I don't think you necessarily need to be a string player to write competent
