| Keep in mind that Table C.1 lists the minimum system requirements. A computer with those specifications will definitely run OneNote, but might not run it well (particularly if you're trying to run more than just one application at a time). If you want to ensure that OneNote runs well on your computer, consider installing OneNote on a computer with at least the requirements outlined in Table C.2. | You'll notice some of the requirements are the same in both tables. Typically, the two components that have the greatest effect on system performance are processor speed and RAM. |
