PC for running UpRev software
 

All,

I am about to get my Supercharger delivered from GTM soon.

I don't have a Windows based laptop. I was looking at getting some sort of cheap laptop just for running the UpRev suite of software. Is a net-book going to be enough computing power to do the job???

Thanks.

What sort of laptop do you have? If it's an Intel-based MacBook, have you tried running Windows on it? Either that or cheap netbook like you mentioned that you can use for logging, tuning, etc.

Just looking for a cheap net book. Want something small.

UpRev says 600Mhz. So a net book should work

yeah. just bout anything cheap will work. dont spend money on it if its not going to be your primary computer. I have used a netbook to run the software.

Yea a netbook should work. I'm using a nettop now and it works fine.
This is the Nettop i'm using.

netbook works just fine. that's what i'm using

Keep an eye on slickdeals.net and outlet.dell.com for good deals on computers.

Dell Outlet deals come with a 1 year warranty just like any of their stuff so its worry-free

I'm using a Dell Mini 1018 for UpRev, works fine. You can pick them up (not even on sale) from $300 from Dell. 10" screen, Atom processor, ships with Windows 7 Starter (which works fine for UpRev). At that tiny size it makes a nice little travel netbook anyways.

Dell Inspiron Mini 1018 - $279

Ended up with a Toshiba netbook.

Should do the trick.
