What type of computer do I need to use a DP product?

For most Data Physics products, including the network-connected SignalCalc Mobilyzer DSA and SignalStar Vector vibration controller, we recommend a Pentium based PC with at least 32 MB RAM and at least a 800 x 600 display. For the high end multi-axis SignalStar Matrix controllers, when they are configured with hundreds of channels, we recommend a high-end workstation PC, such as a fast dual-Pentium with 256 MB RAM.
