excellent, thanks! I can deal with a small hit on HDD performance.

ok cool, I guess that will do then. It is actually not going into the machine in my sig but into a decently powered dual core Penryn 2.53GHz. Many thanks!

Shadow, thanks for the reply. However I still would like to know if it is run as a virtual OS or natively. I plan to run number crunching on Ubuntu and I was under the impression that a virtual OS...

LMAO at the "lockdown browser" that made me snot a little. Your school seems to be really out of touch with technology. Have they even heard of a phone? txt message? If someone wanted to cheat there...

Hi all,

I have this really annoying problem that causes my system (Ubuntu 8.04) to suddenly log off for no reason that I can tell. It is really annoying me because it happens unexpectedly and I...
