Is Intel Pentium P6200 processor good enough for Photoshop CS5?

I'm university student and I must get new pc as fast a possible. The problems are that my budget is rather low and it should be a laptop. The best laptop I could afford I've found so far is http://goo.gl/CbnRU will CS5 work decently on it?

1	i have a eMachine laptop WITH intel pentium P6200 and i HAVE installed PS5 and it works, PERIOD answered Oct 09 '11 at 09:01 KhanTutorials 41●1

1	Yes. I ran CS4 on a 1.6GHz Atom piece of trash for school last year and it worked fine. Haven't tried CS5, but a 2.13GHz Pentium is fast enough for sure. answered Oct 08 '11 at 13:06 PCLinux7 1.3k●17●22●39

1	Yes, the specs are par with mine and Photoshop runs fine. ( I used to CS4 on a 1.3Ghz Celeron) answered Oct 08 '11 at 13:19 markd12 3.6k●91●114●152

1	Yes! That laptop more than meets the minimum requirements, (see screen capture or http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/tech-specs.html). answered Oct 08 '11 at 13:28 r0bErT4u 31.0k●513●672●938

1	That laptop will work fine. Not sure about CS5, but my old PC with a 2.4GHz Celeron and 512mb of RAM ran CS3 pretty nicely. answered Oct 09 '11 at 08:56 Billy Aoki 3.7k●27●37●78
