To make a fair comparison, we tested the PaceBlade PaceBook against another Crusoe based system, an older Sony PictureBook C1VN, and two fairly slow desktop systems based on old Intel Celerons.
Note that we were forced to remove Content Creation Winstone 2002 from our benchmarking application list because the PaceBook system would not complete the test. Each time the test was run on the PaceBook, the benchmark would fail to complete due to a time-out error while running Adobe Premiere The same problem plagued us with the other Crusoe system we tested, the Sony PictureBook C1VN.

That was huge and bulky. Didnt even stood a chance to be successful.
