    Just downloaded KNOPPIX, a Live CD linux OS, and am planning on putting it on my old computer. Would it run good on an older computer with an AMD Duron 750 MHz processor and 304 (wierd # huh?) of RAM.

    that 304 is probably because 16meg is used by onboard video. 256+64=320-16=304

    Yea, I knew I had an old 64 chip in and a 256 one in, but I've always wondered what happened to that other 16 megs :)

    Putting it on your old computer? i'd say good luck to you, i haven't found an easy way to do that yet *i should add i'm a lazy b*stard and doing more than a 7 step install is too much work for me*
    If i where you i'd just run it off the disc, or get a proper debian install. *or SuSE, RedHat or Mandrake if you feel like doing something fancy*

    @DoggyBot Tiger is nice. I hope there will be a version of OSX-86 that will run on non-Apple hardware. The kernel of OSX is BSD, which I prefer to Linux. With Apple's UI, it would even be better since I always thought that X-Windows was kind of kludgey.
