It shows my appointments and I use it every time I make an appointment. My machine is a little bit faster than yours: model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU T2390 @ 1.86GHz The agenda view could be faster, of course, especially if a customer is at the phone for an appointment and you have to scroll back and forth a few times. But it works.
