Notebook computer performance will not equal that of a similar desktop setup. Some systems, especially battery-powered laptops, might be deficient when required to undertake highly demanding tasks, such as, using Professional's Direct Capture feature or in being able to play one or more videos at full speed. However, the computer will likely have sufficient power to do a somewhat slower, but still quite satisfactory swing analysis.

Suggestions for optimizing the performance of your computer and the applications are included with the programs.
