      Hi! Ed,              On Fri, 09 May 14, you wrote to me:               EV> The laptop came with 16MB RAM and I added the 32MB SODIMM card to it.        EV> I don't know if it can use a higher amount of SODIMM RAM or not.?              There isn't a lot of people talking about them on YouTube. Just one guy       trying to sell his laptop that he calls a AcerNote Light 370 "pcx" model (at       that time). (He's an Aussie. Nice accent, similar to mine.) He gave up on       it, totally he says.               EV> I talked to the person yesterday and he told me he bought a used Dell        EV> Notebook with XP Professional on it that has 2GB RAM.              It sounds nice but it probably overworks the system doo-dads. It could make a       nice Linux machine...               EV> I've told him he could use the Live U'u CD without installing U'u on        EV> his pc, OR (there I go again) put it on his Dell and Dual Boot either        EV> Operating System.              I'd do a total replace with U'u; in fact I'd go for Xubuntu, as it's lighter       than the mainstream version and doesn't have that lousy interface similar to       OOTB Windows 8. XP Pro has the same (limited) future as XP Home.               EV>> OR               PQ>> Hang on. Is this a test? Nope. It ain't in Holger's list.        PQ>> Phew! :)               EV> OR isn't on my list of Ham Radio abbreviations either, my OR above        EV> just meant 'or' as in a 2nd question to You about Linux, since I         EV> consider You to be the resident Linux GURU here on the FIDO Windows         EV> 95 echo.              Oh, no. No. I ain't no expert on anything Linux. I just use it... a       glorified user. Thanks for the kind words but I just know where to look for       help, and have the time to do so.               EV> I agree with You, Phew! :) Thanks for the help.              Sure thing. Be good now.              Cheers,       Paul.              ... This tagline vibrates if you rub it the right way.       --- Paul's Win98SE VirtualBox        * Origin: Quinn's Post - Maryborough, Queensland, OZ (3:640/384)    |
