ya it will work but it is very slow to work with atom processor, it did not provide the speed that much like dual core.
Intel atom processor is generally designed for low end PCs and netbooks. These devices are not much capable to deliver graphics and multi-task. You can surf internet, watch movies and play music. But applications like photoshop and Autocad won't work in the way you want. Pentium processor based laptops are available in range of Atom netbooks. So if you want to run Autocad, get a compatible high performance machine.
