    It is supposedly designed for Intel Atom Cpu`s or Windows Xp it is based on Firefox so all your plugins "should" work.

    I have been using the x86 version on my Win8.1 Tablet and it worked great, so this new Atom optimized version seems good as well and supposedly is smaller and will run on 256mb of memory which is handy as my tablet only has 2GB of non-upgradable memory.

    Anyway give it a go, what have you too loose.

    Also i am going to give the x64 version a go on my main notebook.

    Thanks. This browser also makes sense on older laptops and desktops. A good choice.

    On my Aspire Switch 10 (SW5-012) the display is only 1280x800 and i use the F11 fullscreen mode all the time as it removes everything, I never used it on my main computer as it is 1600x900

    EDIT: Do you guy`s have the problem that you cannot turn off the display without the tablet going into sleep mode, you can run a reg hack to fix this, but then you loose the ability to use sleep mode and hibernation takes as long as an normal boot so it`s a waste of time.
