My HP Stream arrived yesterday and it is a surprisingly capable little unit. Once I got rid of all the 'user experience features' which hinder performance on Windows 8.1 (which I had done previously on my big laptop) it was getting speeds similiar to my big system. I ran registry cleaner as well and got rid of a few hundred performance issues. Stripped out all the installed apps that are useless to me and reduced the system to a pure astro platform, so it's really fast now. Put on BYEOS, Metaguide, MetaMonitor, Red Screen, downloaded the ASI camera drivers, and did some testing with the cameras. It's performing great so far. Still have to get a couple of other apps onto it but it is ready for the field now. Thanks Dunk, for the recommendation of this nice little laptop.
