Well, just got the box today. It's a hand me down from my cousin. I know it's a K6-2/533 (Yech!) And according to the Compaq factory stats, has 64M of RAM, but I'm hoping my cousin added a bit more to it in the time he's owned it. Haven't had a chance to check it out yet. I'm busy reconfiguring my desktop system to dual-boot Linux/XP. I'm pretty good about keeping XP tuned up right, but I've just installed/uninstalled too many programs over the last year and change, and it was gettin' twitchy, so I decided to blow it away. I'm tryin' to make a Linux desktop I can use full-time, and I'll just keep the XP partition for gaming. SimplyMEPIS 3.3. Debian distro. Very slick. I highly recommend it for anybody looking for a Windows-replacement version of Linux. Though it only comes with KDE, so you have to install Gnome yourself if you want it. Really a very simple process with the Synaptic Package manager. But I digress... _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
