will it work or not?

i have a gamebridge and assuming the drivers can install properly on the netbook, can i expect reasonable quality?

if yes/maybe, what would be the minimum specs to do it well? (looks like standard stuff is 1.6 ghz processor, 1 gb RAM)

if no, that sucks

i'd much much rather someone who has personal experience weigh in

my desktop is super duper overqualified to record via gamebridge, yet even it has problems recording without sporadic lag when everything around it isn't absolutely perfect

I've done it. It works and the quality is exactly the same.

My hardware is the same as what you're describing; gamebridge, 1.66 GHz, 1GB ram. This is the exact model I used.

I tested it a couple months ago; I may have been using the medium quality setting, I forget. I'm watching a video I recorded now and it looks great. That video has resolution 438x320.
