[QUOTE="IronWolf, post: 5347294, member: 21076"] I think it will run it, not sure the processors in them would be up to the task to run it smoothly? As for readers, I run FoxIt reader on mine with no issues. Come to think of it, I've run the FoxIt editor version as well I believe. I have not done this, I run it on my main PC. I can't think of a reason it wouldn't though the smaller netbook screen would likely be annoying for trying to use it for any length of time. Works great for web surfing. I've watched movies on mine and used it in airplanes to keep IronPup entertained. No DVD drive on mine, so I have to rip it to a file in order to play. Mine does not perform well at full-screen, it does much better in windowed mode. These are more limitations of the hardware in mine than Windows 7 starter though. Were it me, I would seriously consider a lightweight full on notebook with more RAM and more powerful processor. Don't get me wrong, I like my netbook and have used it when traveling as my primary machine. But when I am at home I tend to either use my main desktop PC or grab my full-sized laptop and use it.
