I have Beta 1 installed on a Pentium 400 MHz with 128 MB of memory, and it is dead slow. I think the memory is the biggest problem, because it is swapping constantly.
I'm also having problems with a P166 with 49MB RAM. I can't even manage to install vs.net! I suppose it's a memory problem.
It's slow on a 1 GHz Athlon with 256 MB of RAM...
Its probably just the beta versions that are slow, even on quick PCs... I hope
PIII-500/128mb is slower than my brain cell :(
Once they rip all the debug code out it might just work ;) By the time it comes out the entry-level will have moved on so I don't see it as a problem :)
I think Karl polinted out that Beta 1 is slow. Liveable? The only spare PC we have is a p166 with 64 meg ram. We usually use this to test software. If l can get vb.net to run on it, the slowness will probably not be a huge problem, as will spend most of the time looking at properties and methods, and trying to get to terms with these code library things.
