I routinely run multi-track audio software (Ableton Live, Celemony Melodyne, Bias Peak, and others) on a 1280x800 screen. The Booklet is 1280x720, and has an HDMI out. For my personal case use, there is no problem.

Btw, none of these audio packages are available for Linux, and there really isn't anything even close. So it's OSX or Windows - frankly, either is fine with me.
