MMF 2, will it run on a netbook?

I want to run MMF 2 off my netbook so I can program at work on the sly :)
Would MMF2 run on a netbook?

Heres the specs:
Intel® Atom™ processor N455
Features 512KB L2 cache and 1.66GHz processor speed.
1GB DDR2 memory
Note: Optical drive not included
Compatible with optional external recordable CD/DVD drives (not included).
10.1" WSVGA LED-backlit widescreen display
With TruBrite technology and 1024 x 600 resolution brings movies and games to life.
250GB Serial ATA hard drive (5400 rpm)
Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 3150
With up to 250MB dynamically allocated shared memory.
Built-in stereo speaker.
Multiformat memory card reader
3 high-speed USB 2.0 ports
Built-in wireless LAN (802.11b/g/n)
Microsoft Windows 7 Starter Edition operating system preinstalled.

Considering I had a external cd drive to install the program, would this work?
Thanks!

Yes!

We run it on Netbooks at tradeshows to show people it doesn't take a very expensive computer to use it. (and these are old first gen netbooks)

It might not be the fastest environment when you start working with large graphics and video files but you can get some work done with it.

So basically -- If windows runs on it -- MMF will run on it.

Hey, thanks for the quick reply Jeff! My name is Jeff too so thats probably why your so awesome :)
I will get to work installing this.
Love MMF 2 by the way. Fantastic program!

Yeah, it works perfectly on my netbook (incl. all HWA features).
The only real issue is screen resolution - the interface is *very* cramped at 1024x600, so you'll be wanting to connect to a monitor or TV whenever possible.

btw: You can install it using a virtual drive (eg. Daemon tools lite), instead of buying an external optical drive.

IIRC you can install it by copying the contents of the CD. I used an external drive when I finally put MMF2 on my netbook, and it runs really well (to be expected really, MMF2 has its roots in some very old software).

Thanks MuddyMole, thats useful information. I will do that with the virtual drive.
