Re: [PD] min hardware?

i'm new to Pd, and am really anxious to dig deep on it, but my laptop is fritzing out and needs repair. was considering using another machine temporarily... in ya'lls experience what's the minimum suggested hardware for Pd? would it run ok on an old pentium II? i'd like to just pick up an old machine at the goodwill or on ebay, but dont want to waste my time if Pd is CPU-intensive.

Pd is as CPU-intensive as you make it in your patches. It's no problem to run Pd on a Pentium II, in fact, I ran it on lower machines and it also runs on a PDA, however don't expect to run complex DSP calculations on that.
