I have two laptops [HP - nc6000 and nw8000], running rhel4 (32 bit version
of course) and VJ21B/VJ21A. Don't have any problem.
On my laptop [windows XP on a HP 6220], I have vmware5.x installed. The
virtual machine is rhel4 and I have all licenced versions of VnmrJ [VJ11D
(mercury/inova), VJ21A (vnmrs) and VJ21B (vnmrs/inova)] loaded up. I keep
them all for development purpose [simply softlink /vnmr to whatever I want
it to be]. I have to admit that I can't live without it anymore.

AMMRL: ammrl and laptops
Folks:
I tried last year to prep a Toshiba laptop to run vnmrj2.1b. The
goal was to use this laptop to teach vj in a classroom using the
overhead video projector. First, the group that loaned the laptop for
teaching purposes loaded kubuntu. A great flavor, but not rhel 3, or 4.
We tried naively to load vj anyway. After solving several problems we
called it off. I got the bright idea of loading the same version of rhel
that I had on the spectrometers. Don't laugh. The spectrometers have
intel quasi 64 bit processors. We also have two home brew workstation
running rhel4 just fine (they are true 64bit amd's).
What do you recommend in a laptop with a reasonable price that is
compatible with rhel3, or 4 and vj2.1? And, do you know it works?
Happy New Year, Lew
