Hello,
Has anyone tried installing LabView on the new Atomic Pi SBC?

Assuming that your post is a question and not an advertisement, it will run LabVIEW, just not very comfortably. 2GB Ram is small, and with 16GB SSD, you will constantly be running into issues (e.g. With every windows update).
I would not recommend it as a development machine, but maybe as a semi-embedded device where you deploy a built LabVIEW app.
I've run apps on much less powerful atom processors.

Yes, sorry it is in fact a question, I am really interested in using raspberry pi but as a stand alone system without need of a pc to deploy to. I was hoping that the atomic pi would be my answer.

Yes, since it is capable to run full windows 10, you should be able to run any built LabVIEW application. Not sure how to deal with all the GPIO, though.
(This is definitely not true for the rPi, where you need linx)
In terms of relative performance for a pure computational application, you can look at my benchmarks.
A similar CPU is the x5-Z8500 and the single-core performance is comparable to a Pentium 4, but we have four cores, thus even beating some old Core 2 duo chips. In comparison, an old Atom N450 is 4-8 times slower, but still works. 😮
(On a side-note, my x5-Z8500 is a tiny Kangoroo that I got for $90 (incl. shipping) a few years back from the Microsoft store, including Windows 10. (This is less than a windows license!). You can still buy it for 3x more if you are willing to pay $3000 for shipping of a <1pound item from New Jersey 😮 I hope this is a misprint... Hilarious!
