Note 1: The minimum level depends on your operating system requirements.
For example you need at least 128MBytes to effectively run Windows 2000 or XP

Most medium range modern computer\laptops will meet the specifications for all of the above

Note 2: Some laptops do not have a serial port. You will need to add a USB to serial cable.

Note:3 If your laptop does not have a Parallel port - order the USB dongle option


The above are recommended minimums especially with S57 and 3D, higher specifications will mean your PC will also work better with other/more applications and extend its useful life.
