Silly question: would we be able to run “Final Cut Pro” or Sony Vegas on this guy...?

It would not run software made for windows, then..? Like it could not run Word?

No you can’t run any Windows software applications (Office, Photoshop, etc) on this. Only Google’s apps that are all web based - although some have good offline modes (email, etc). This is a very lightweight type machine meant for doing research, email, watching movies online, etc. Can’t do real powerhouse type stuff at all.

Open Office is actually very good.

Sure are there things it can’t do. Then again, you would also save money not needing to pay for virus protection
