Hello, at the moment I am using the SBS system but I m thinking of changing over to RB,what I need to know is can the the RB be installed onto a notebook or does it have to a laptop or PC

I run RB2009 on a Samsung NC10 without any problems.  See http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=1413.msg14430#msg14430

All you need to do is switch to 1024x768 display when adjusting any preferences.  Otherwise, it runs perfectly on the 1024x600 native resolution.

Thanks for the reply, but how do you download the RB onto the netbook if it does not have a disc drive, as you can tell I am not very good on computers

do you have access to the internet on your netbook? if so just download the software from the Airnav website, support for the radarbox.

Alternative methods are:-

1. Network the Netbook and a PC or laptop with a CDROM drive and share the CDROM drive to allow you to run the install software from the remote drive.

2. Copy the contents of the CDROM onto a Memory Stick, and then use that on the Netbook to run the software from.
Based in Hexham - Tyne Valley 
Best view for RB is North of a line between EGNT and EGNC  - includes OTA and Spade, to EGPH above 7500ft.   Can be TRUE mobile with Mobile Broadband feed to Network.

Runs fine on my Asus 901. Obviously there are screen size limitations you would have to live with!
