[QUOTE="A nonymous, post: 839406, member: 240839"] Well i've got PearLinux on my PC now and i think its brilliant. its just like using my old iMac again :D Its the first time i've stuck a 64bit system on this PC (Dell Optiplex GX620 3Gb, Pentium D cpu, 4Gb RAM )and it works really well and is a lot faster than Windows XP 32bit, although unfortunately some of my software only works in Windows so i have had to set it up as dual boot with about 30gb dedicated to windows and the other 470gb for linux :D I would have run XP 64bit other than for some unknown reason theres no 64 bit drivers on the Dell website. They were never made. I can also swap stuff between the two which is useful. Both systems are fine writting to the 1TB secondary drive in the PC. Nano [/QUOTE]
