  1. 4 tabs open in FF 3.1 beta on windows and only 116 MB
  2. but you can surf ok? it might be a block port or a firewall
  3. I would recomend Seagate as well But personally I got this one http://www.amazon.com/AcomData-HD500UFAPE5-72-3-5-Inch-FireWire-Combo/dp/B000R9WP4S/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1229654302&sr=1-5 they have gotten mostly bad reviews but i love that hard drive I carry it around in my backpack like its a flash drive and so far nothing bad has happen to it besides the faceplate coming off but seriously I would just get a big enough flash drive at this point and wait until this time next year to get a USB 3.0 one
  4. I was thinking Opensuse I like that better but will that run on Old hardware fine Or should I install a mini Linux Distro Such as slax or Puppy?
  5. Ok so i have these 3 or computers that im really sure i could turn into at least one or 2 these computers are WIndows 2000 era I would like to put Linux on them and give them away on craigslist or Freecycle to anyone that needs a computer for basic surfing but im not sure which distro to use for a linux noob and maybe even possibly a comp noob I want to put linux on them cause lets face it windows 200 cant do shit and I get less support questions on linux than windows from computer noobs since you are not infected by adware or viruses even if they click those annoying "Your system was infected by a deadly virus click here to scan now" ads they wont do shit in linux so yeah its less of a hassle linux just works I normally use Fedora or OpenSUSE with a mixture of Vista ( Designer if adobe ever gets official support in linux bye bue WIndows) So can anyone help me pick out a distro? If needed I will post specs on computers later but i'm at school I want something small that a small kid can get online write a small paper (email it to school so he can printed there) Listen to music (preferably on songbird since it resembles Itunes a bit and its awesome) and please dont say Ubuntuu cause i hate Ubuntuu Any other suggestions are welcome
