Compare Ubuntu Studio with Ubuntu Desktop both 12.10
For Example: On an ASUS 904HD with 1G Memory Based on Windows XP!
Or Ubuntu Studio on Lenovo 3000 Desktop Pentium Dual-Core with only 500MB Memory.
Thanks

You need to be more specific to get any feedback. Compare what exactly? IIRC, the Ubuntu Studio is built on Xubuntu, so it's XFCE desktop environment, so no Unity or Compiz there for instance.

The focus on the installed software is completely different as the Ubuntu Studio is geared for graphics design, video and music applications. I am not sure but it could also be shipping with a real-time (low-latency) Linux kernel which obviously the standard Ubuntu does not ship with.

I don't understand the question. What does Windows XP have to do with running Ubuntu?

Basically my understanding is that Ubuntu Studio is Ubuntu with a bunch of software added for multimedia production?

Somebody talked about Lxde well lxde is exactly the same on any linux, redhat suse etc... so I also install lxde. It is also quite fast.

[iamkuriouspurpleoranj]

Yeah - Ubuntu Studio has a low-latency kernel. It also has Nautilus rather than Thunar as file manager, even though it's Xfce-based.

Now 14.04 Beta!
Thanx

Lets agree to disagree

Ubuntu Studio comes with Thunar file manager. At least 12.04, 13.04. 13.10 did and 14.04 does.
Running 14.04 now !

Yes, Low-latency kernel is default in Ubuntu Studio. Currently running:

~$ uname -a
Linux nbe42 3.13.0-8-lowlatency #28-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Tue Feb 11 18:24:35 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
