   Thanks Russell :-)   
      
   I duel booted a couple of distro's on the above Scenic, and they ran teribly   
   slow, I have sice had an Acer T120 tower, with Amd Sempron 2600+ 1.8 GHz and   
   768mb ram donated :-)   
      
   Looking at Distrowatch it seems that Ubuntu is the most popular, I will try   
   both the Gnome, and KDE desktop's to see which I prefer.   
      
   Thanks again for the reply.   
      
   Best Regards
