My Linux CD's arrived today.

Yes and no.....yes it'll work and you'll have about 70mb free, the no= once you start doing things that need temp space (surfing net, burning CD/DVD....) you'll run out of memory I have a 2gig Linux swap file on my HD, it uses that when memory runs out.......but.....I don't have that problem because I made my own custom Remastered LiveCD and it's only 500+MB, things are fine & fast in 1gig Ram.

 

I like the idea of installing it and running (Home/Pro) XP-VMwared!!! Don't think I'll bother with waiting on GutsyGibbon. My leariness is the resolution, (I have 1440x900) it's a bit of an eye-strain coming out of FeistyFawn and into XP. PCLOS seems a little net-config friendlier too!
