Re: [Trisquel-users] New thinkpenguin laptop
I can't imagine what 32 GB of RAM could be used for. My Mac mini is plenty fast with 2 GB of RAM. (That's all it can address, sadly.)
Re: [Trisquel-users] New thinkpenguin laptop
Here is the model: http://lowendmac.com/2006/mac-mini-early-2006/ I bought it used with 2 GB of RAM, and I upgraded the processor to a 2 GHz Core 2 Duo. The Mac mini has 2 RAM slots, the first one had a 2 GB RAM stick in it, so I tried putting a 512 MB stick in the other slot. When I pressed the power button, it didn't turn on. Removing the added stick solved the problem.
Re: [Trisquel-users] New thinkpenguin laptop
That's strange, because I'm sure it uses DDR2; it has one 2 GB RAM stick. I may have linked to the wrong model.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Talks about DRM
GNUser said - As for the word piracy, well, it's better to understand the meaning that the word carries when talking about content, than to make stupid jokes about ships and murders. I (and most people I know) associate the word pirate as pirates on the high seas, even if used in the context of unauthorized distribution. The RIAA, MPAA, and the BSA (Business Software Alliance) intend for this to happen, to smear unathorized distribution. The word piracy must have not changed too much, as there are modern-day pirates on the high seas (plundering ships, killing the crew.)
