      > Hi Jeff,       >> 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        >> 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 tha       >> 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 G       >> issues with previous installs of Ubuntu. Anyone have any thoughts?              > Sounds like it will be a nice system :)              I have never been a PC game player. So I don't have a need for the best of the       best PC's. I have a PS3 when I get urge to blow sh.. Err.. crap up. |
