The differences will be tough to notice unless you've got less than 512M of RAM. I had no problems running 64-bit distros years ago on a machine with 1G of RAM, but that was before KDE 4 and insane firefox bloat. 64-bit and 4G RAM works just fine. You'll probably be OK with 2G and maybe even 1G. -- Crow202 Blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress There is no Darkness in Eternity But only Light too dim for us to see. --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
