Mark,

The EeePC has a small physical screen, and therefore very light and
portable. It is a compromise by design.

By Physical, I mean the actual number of pixels (dots) on the screen.
Therefore it can only display very limited amount of information.

EeePC allows one to define a much larger virtual screen, and then it
opens up a window the size of the physical screen into the virtual
screen. By moving the Window around, you can see the entire virtual
screen, one part at a time.

The scrolling does not affect your ability to log data. The real
culprit in your situation is the program which seems to have been
written to specifically forbid dynamic resizing.

If seeing the entire screen is important to you, you may want to add
an external monitor and set it up as a separate second desktop and run
your program there. External monitors usually have much higher
resolution so your problem could go away.

If you are thinking about a "real notebook". Most notebooks, regarding
of size of the screen, actually only displays 1366 x 768. Much lower
vertical resolution than your old, 12 inch monitor. So you might want
to try to size your application screen on a regular monitor, before
using it on one of the modern notebooks.

Back to the EeePC. I am not associated with ASUS, but it should be a
very good data logger, but may not be a very good data display unit.
Of course, if you write your own data logger program, you will have no
problem fitting everything into the small screen.

Hope this helps!

Paul,

I am using the MPX4250AP sensors.  Since the Hytek reads out in volts,
how do we convert volts to In. MAP?  Or does it really matter if we just
want to compare the three sensor outputs for uniformity?

It matters. I just sent the graphs.
