All you guys with low end laptop systems, can you tell me if the following system will run with a graphical interface? No, I will not be doing any graphical effects nor movie editing. I will only use the machine to type text files and ftp them onto the web. I will surf the web. I will check my email. I might use Frostwire (I usually buy my stuff, but if it is not available in the stores, then I download it. For example, all my foreign language songs are downloaded.) That's it.
Is it possible to use the following machine for these activities in Ubuntu 8.04? With a graphical interface. I don't want a command line interface as I don't want to memorize any commands.
System:
333MHz Pentium II
128 MB RAM
2.5 MB video memory
6.5 GB hard drive
Sony Vaio
I will want to set-up a wireless network card:
Netgear MA401
Thanks,
:P
P.S.
I already read this thread: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements , but it is not clear whether it will run with a graphical interface or not because my system is in-between the absolute minimum and minimum requirements. Thanks.
