   BBBS and New Hardware?   
   13 May 15 19:10:26   
   
   Hello All,   
      
   I was wondering if anyone has any info on how BBBS works with new(er) PC   
   hardware. I am in the process of building a new PC with todays available   
   hardware. I will be installing 64 bit Ubuntu on the PC. Currently the PC will   
   have a SSD boot drive and 2-4 TB's of SATA storage, an 8 or 10 core processor   
   and a minimum of 16G's of Ram. I don't plan on playing any games or the like   
   so the video will be a modest PCIe card with 2G onboard. I realize that   
   BBBS depends alot on the OS for hardware compatibility. But to the degree that   
   BBBS interacts with the PC hardware itself I was curious if there are any   
   issues or limitations. I had noticed some minor issues with USB drivers and   
   GUI issues with previous installs of Ubuntu. Anyone have any thoughts?
