I am so excited.
ChefBeckyD said:I've looked at those - but haven't found one with enough memory to run P3 - what kind did you get?
laylaleigh said:Becky - It is just shy on a couple of the recommended requirements, but not by much. It exceeds all of the minimum requirements. There is pleanty of memory to run P3.
It is the ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10-Inch Netbook (1.6 GHz Intel ATOM N270 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, XP Home, 6 Cell Battery)
Recommended CPU is 2.0 GHZ and this is 1.6 and the screen resolution is 1024X600 and the recommended is 1024X768.
I just got it on Friday. I am going to download P3 from the Consultant's Corner tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes. I do need to figure out how to get my current data transfered. I think I am going to add it to my home network and copy it. I need to ask my dad about the details. If I try it on my own who knows what will happen!
I hope that helps.
ChefBeckyD said:Layla - you'll have to keep me posted on how it's working for you! Do you plan on doing email with it too?
I just think they are so cute - but more than that, so handy. It would be so easy to carry it with me if I want to go to a coffee house to get some work done or take it with me when I'm running errands/waiting in the car/etc....

Have the host collect the orders for you. Then you can get them from her and other guests won't hover. Then you can still call people one at a time and they aren't going to care if the host is the one in the background.I got my laptop before Christmas and am SOOOO glad I did. I found I was being dimed and quartered to death. People would write down the wrong price and I would add according to that price only to find out when I got home that they were 25-50 cents off (usually). I ate it because most of my shows are out of town and it isn't worth the gas or stamp to get that little bit. Then I looked at how much it added up! ARGH! My laptop makes it so the computer is correcting the price and not me (then I don't look like a bad guy or embarrass them).kcmckay said:I've had my laptop since my first show. It broke down after first one and my next few I didn't have it with me. I don't really remember the difference right now as that was over a year ago. I've taken it to every show since. I would probably be lost without it, but some of you make good points that it does take away some face time. I might try something new next time that has been suggesting in my cluster. Full Service Checkout I have a bit of a struggle with because people tend to hover etc. My last live show I was ok with people listened about letting me do one on one. But what was suggested before was to collect the orders then call each guest up one at a time. I may try that next time that way while they are eating/sociallizing I can enter in all the information I need and then call them up and do my asking of selling/hosting/etc. I'm just not sure how to go about it because I don't like to take up a ton of the host/guests time?
While it is not required, many consultants find it helpful to bring their laptop with them to shows. This allows for easy access to P3 and makes it easier to enter orders and information during the event.
Yes, using a laptop to enter orders into P3 can be more efficient and accurate compared to using a paper order form. It also allows for real-time updates and tracking of orders.
Yes, many consultants do bring their laptops to shows. It is a personal preference and some find it to be a valuable tool for managing orders and information during the event.
While it is possible to use a phone or tablet to access P3 at shows, it may not be as convenient or efficient as using a laptop. It also depends on the size and functionality of the device.
It is recommended to have internet access to use your laptop at shows, as it allows for real-time updates and access to P3. However, you can also use offline mode if necessary and sync your data later on when you have internet access.
