The challenge in using a laptop with QSR products will not be in hardware
capacity, but in how you configure it for flexible use. I configured my
laptop for home networking and networked to my office machine so that I
could work on the same project from more than one place. However, on home
netorking, I found I could not write to my project, even though all the file
permissions were correct (writable). In a later setup, I found this was not
a problem. I never did figure out the difference between these two
renditions. You can also set up you your laptop and one or more desktops
with PC Anywhere or Timbuktoo so that you can work on the same laptop
project from multiple locations. Of course, backup to an external medium is
critical.
