Who uses MS on a windows laptop and how well does it work
#5
I am using Mobilesheets on both a Windows "2 in 1" laptop and a Chromebook.  It does not play particularly well with the Chromebook in several respects, but my intention is to use the Chromebook as my Mobilesheets "content management system" along with Google Drive, and use the Windows system as my "display" device.

As a result, I dragged my Windows laptop out of the drawer to which I'd sentenced it (I hate Windows in general), detached the keyboard, and have declared it a special use tablet for Mobilesheets.  It's working quite well (modulo needing a new battery since it's 8 years old at this point -- it's getting that this week).  I have had some glitches with it in editing Setlists, but I'm not sure those are Windows specific and won't go into them here.

My system is a Thinkpad X1 Tablet, 1st Gen, 20GG, manufacturing date is 2016, I bought it new in 2018.  It's running Win 11 Pro, does have 8G of memory and a fast processor (it used to be a development system for me), but I'd be surprised if that makes a difference in running MobileSheets.

I have found that it is better to pull the keyboard off and use the Thinkpad as a straightforward tablet (whether in "tablet mode" or not), at least while using it to read music, and then just attach the keyboard if you have a real need for it.
