Check out the recommended
hardware requirements. Emphasis on:
1. Adequate screen resolution at least 1024 x 768 (especially netbooks with screens of 10.1" or less), since AC windows cannot be resized.
2. If you plan on more than 5 clients, on the main (database) computer you need the "Pro" version of Windows XP (up to 10 clients) or Windows 7 Pro (up to 20 clients).
3. Wireless networking will slow down access to the database, especially searching through Imported Items. Gigabit wired ethernet adapters will improve performance.
