Is it possible to compile on a net book with such
specs?
Need answers for BOTH Linux based compilers and Windows
based ones!

sure, why not?...
I had before compiled a fairly large project on an ASUS EEE with a 16GB
drive...
admittedly, the keyboard was a little unpleasant...
similarly, the language is not exactly new, and wasn't always used on
necessarily powerful computers...
what kind of computers were people using in the early 90s?... yes, 386's and
486's, with typically anywhere from 4MB to 16MB of RAM.
one was doing fairly well if they had a 250MB HD.
and, just the same, C++ was there...
and the compilers ran on MS-DOS...
now, if we revert to just plain C:
one can go back to much older computers (such as the PDP-11, ...) and past
years (1970s) C was still there...
so, none of this is new, and it doesn't exactly take powerful computers to
run compilers...

ok well I'm new to programming......am 52 yr old man
taking intro programming class in C++...so very dumb
abt this
I knew it easy to WRITE code on an Atom CPU.... but
didn't know if one could do any compiling worth a shit
on one
I actually have two net books...one is a dell mini 9
with 16 gig ssd..... this one I'm using now is samsung
with better atom CPU and 160 gig mechanical drive
I'm getting ready to install ubuntu remix on the dell
since it has such little hard drive capacity.... hoping
for better performance than what the current OS (Win XP
home) provides
so..... will remix come with a compiler ? I'm
thinking no...

Don't let age be a barrier to getting stuck in. Most, if not all, Linux
distros will provide you with plenty of tools for C++ programming. The
only problem you might have is lack of drive space, but that can be
remedied with an external drive.
