Would uDig run on tablet Fujitzu Q550?
Locked
 
|
Hi folks!
A question: can uDig run on the tablet Fujitzu Q550 ? The device is an Intel Atom Z690 @ 1.7Ghz with 2GB RAM (not expandible) and HDD SSD 64GB, with outdoor monitor enabled for touch & stylus, with integrated GPS, UMTS, BT & Wireless.
I am a bit afraid since the CPU has ultra-low power consumption but also consequent low performances. Has anyone a suggestion. Mc

I rather recommend QGIS which runs suprisingly smooth in this tablet. _______________________________________________ udig-users mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/udig-users |

---------- Messaggio inoltrato ---------- My I ask you some further detail? What do you mean by "slow"? Do you mean "slow but usable" or "unbearably slow"? I know the answer is quite subjective.. ..so, another way to pose the same question for me is: "performing typical field activities like digitizing poygons, editing geometry nodes and panning topographic grayscale maps, can be effectively performed?"
(I expect ananlysis tools have to be performed on Desktop processors) Many thanks _______________________________________________ udig-users mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/udig-users |

Hi Marco,
we are using uDig (with BeeGIS field survey extension) on an ASUS tablet netbook T91 and are most happy with it. We bounght a second battery and with the two of them we can handle a whole day on the field collecting data with bluetooth gps connection active. It is slow to startup but then it is ok and most usable.

Many thanks to both of you, Andrea and Einari. Seems this thread could rapidly shift to "assessing human perception of computers' performance",
since it is quite unlikey that an Atom Z520 (Asus T91) can outperform an Atom Z670 (Q550) [with twice the ram!] I wouldn't like to be forced to opt for a Samsung Series 7 Slate.. ..it is around 1'300 Euro!!
