[IWantFroyo]

Could you please just post the name of the computer? That's all we need to know.

[slashwannabe94]

It's custom mate :)

RAM = 4GB DDR2

[wormyblackburny]

Not too bad, its a dual core with hyperthreading, 256ATI graphics (so-so), 3 GB RAM.... How much did you pay, what size screen, and what brand is it, those are the big questions that will determine how "good" it is (at least in my opinion)

[IWantFroyo]

OK thanks. I've built computers before. I just list the parts I used though.
From what I see, that will run well with Ubuntu.

[gamebusterzade]

i think it will be fine for ubuntu

just that u may what to just spec out your computer with what you know about it next time

if you need to know that it will run fine on your computer install it on a zip(USB) if BIOS supports it

if not test with the livecd

otherwise just jump in and start

[slashwannabe94]

£100 man. 22 inch lcd came with it. Can this run ubuntu 10.4 LTS 64bit ?

[Joe of loath]

Um, no s**t ;)

I've run Ubuntu on 1.8ghz boxes with 512mb of RAM...

[slashwannabe94]

I know it will run the 32 bit version. Just will it run the 64bit?

Yayyyyyyyy :P

Thanks dude. I would have found this out time ago if i had good eyes haha.

[ajmc]

I am using amd64 on my system with no problem. I think you should try it :D

[wormyblackburny]

X64 has worked fine for me. There have been a couple small bumps along the way, but nothing major. Have at it :)

[Yellow Pasque]

Could you please just post the name of the computer? That's all we need to know.

NO. I would much rather have a meaningful parts list than a meaningless brand name that I probably won't bother to google.
