1080p H.264 requires Intel Core 2 Duo running at 2.6Ghz or an AMD Athlon 64
X2 5600+ 2.8Ghz



1. Netbook with nVidia ION (1st generation)
Cost > $300
Screen Size is around 10-12"
Will not do advanced de-interlacing for myth
Battery life around 4-6 hours
I would suggest a ASUS Eee PC 1201N-PU17-BK Black 12.1" WXGA NetBook or a HP
Mini 311
Will only play content supported by VDPAU. This uses an Intel Atom chipset.
May be able to play low resolution (SD) flash.
Do NOT get a NG-ION (or ION2) system as these only have worse performance
than the previous generation.

2. Intel Core i3 Laptop
Cost > $600
