Is the latest system somehow more workable, or have I been not using it as it was intended?
I don't pay much attn to the "memory" / processor issues ... I've got a baby monster for a laptop, and it seems to handle onenote without a hitch.

I'm guessing I only use about 10% of onenote's capabilities.

But ... personally I'm gaining benefit from it as a research (grab and store) tool for projects. Example: I have a "notebook" in there with tons and tons and tons of research on "Brain Trusts" "Masterminds" "Peer Advisory" etc etc etc -- all is being used for content creation and sales copy for "The Brain Trust" which launches in Jan.

Yesterday, I had about 20 min to kill while waiting for my wife in the car, I popped open my laptop and read more depth in that specific notebook. Making notes along the way, etc.

I use it for 3 or 4 other things, but the most value I get right now is the research/storage.

If someone is "sharing" notebooks (with staff, partners, etc) would love to know how that's working out for you. That's next for me since we now have multiple people collaborating on projects, etc.
