I ran winuae on a HP 2133 1.6 ghz VIA CPU. this CPU and chipset is the worst you can get in a netbook (apart from the lower clock speed VIA CPU's). It had 2 gig ram and under XP PRO, Winuae flew. Ran everything i threw at it without skipping a beat. As an aside it also ran PS1 and N64 games in 1280x1024, no problems. In fact some of the N64 games look fantastic and the playabilty was as always brilliant. I think enough RAM is the key here, coz your hardware ought to be better than the VIA in the 2133.
