This may have been discussed previously but I am wondering if I can run MoI on a chromebook?
thanks,

Hi eric,

> This may have been discussed previously but I am wondering if I can run MoI on a chromebook?

No I don't think so - a chromebook is meant to be used basically as a web browser terminal where you are only accessing web sites with it. You don't install software locally with it (with maybe a few exceptions for lightweight smartphone like apps possibly), you only use "cloud based" services with it.

MoI isn't a web based program that would work like that. One thing that might be possible is to have MoI running on a regular desktop computer and access that by remote desktop on the chromebook though.

Thanks Michael ...
I expected as much. I think I will look for an inexpensive small windows laptop instead. I do have a Windows laptop MoI runs well on but it is an older model and rather heavy to lug around to clients.
cheers
