found a laptop on new egg for $249 it is ran off a linux operating system is the software compatible? there is a discount code(EMCABAGAJ) which brings it down to $199 delivered.

would this laptop be able to run the software?
only problem is the 7" screen. If it is used in the shop it can be hooked up to a monitor.

as fas as I know ... not linux compatible (directly). Might have to find a wndows emulator program, and then I'm still not sure.......

If this is going to be your main computer for using Designer software you are going to be highly disappointed. That "netbook" is not a laptop. Its purpose is simple internet, email, chat type applications. While it might run Designer... the user experience will be painfully slow based on its specs.
