(Well, hardware was a factor, but the menu structure and GUI also mattered.) Personally, jumping from Windows XP to an Ubuntu variant (like CrunchBang) was easier than jumping to 7 for some reason. Linux is a nice alternative for me- since it is something new and tries to be familiar.

#MAC MINI SERVER EBAY WINDOWS 7#

Windows 7 still needs getting used to, but I’m quite pleased it works well out of the box and requires little tweaking.

#MAC MINI SERVER EBAY HOW TO#

I know where everything is, and am familiar with the menus and wizards I know how to tweak that OS the best. One reason is because I’ve grown up with computers using that operating system.

Intel Pentium 4 Prescott 3.0 GHz with HyperThreadingĢ0GB IDE 5400 RPM (might upgrade sometime)Īt this moment, I still feel at home most with Windows XP- and probably will for the rest of my computing career. #!

Cool, except both monitors have very different default brightnesses, and my setup doesn’t exactly look to pleasant (plus I don’t trust the cats–the other monitor is right in their favorite spot, beside three windows). In a surprise to me, I think I’ll be keeping openSUSE on it for a while, I’m pretty impressed.Īlso, a couple days ago I got dual-screen set up on the machine, with a 20″ widescreen LCD (1680×1050) and an older 19″ CRT (1600×1200) monitor.

Pretty cool, but it wasn’t long before I decided to try the latest openSUSE, which I liked better. Recently I decided to see how KDE4 was coming, and was curious to see Fedora 12’s new Plymouth boot, so I tried it (note: I’m not a Fedora fan).

Both were running Ubuntu (though I used the full Gnome desktop on the Dell). So far though, it’s been more of an experimentation machine–I’ve mostly been using the other one, but running Firefox (through SSH) on the old one. 512 really does seem to be the minimum these days, unless you’re willing to make some serious sacrifices… and not just in window manager.Ī few months ago, I got a 64-bit AMD-based Dell with a gig of RAM (it was originally my mom’s, actually), and have been slowly switching to it. – Various byproducts of using Qt 4.6 (newer WebKit,…)įor the last several years, I’ve been using a Gateway with a 1.7GHz P4 and 256 megs of RAM, which I was running Ubuntu on last (previously Zenwalk) lately, in desperation for more RAM, I’ve been running Openbox, which (with Firefox’s requirements) doesn’t help much with the swapping/slowdown. – Non-obtrusive animations added to Plasma (OK, OSX had those in the Dock years ago, but better late than never ). – The new KAddressBook feels much smoother. – The volume bar, displayed when using notebook’s “Fn” keys, is now Plasma themed. The other way around is also possible: Disable Plasma notifications, execute GNOME’s “notification-daemon” and all KDE apps use that one. That means that any GNOME app that dispatches notifications, now uses Plasma. – Fully compatible with GNOME’s notifications. Here’s a short list of the little things that improved in 4.4, that weren’t on any “what’s new in 4.4” list I encountered: tabbed windows management or the new netbook GUI), so it would be a lie if I wrote that 4.4 feels like a totally new desktop to me. I’m not using the giant new features of 4.4 (e.g. The overall increased polish of 4.4 weighs more than a few tiny quirks, IMHO. 4.4b2 has a few quirks, but that is to be expected from a beta.
