I'm just so glad I made it

Having stumbled upon the suggestion that a Linux distro would make my old 128mb ram PC running xp go like a rocket, I chose a puppy, wary 5.1.2 live CD. At first it wouldn't load and I though the system couldn't handle it till I realised it was the Cd drive itself. I've just swapped the leads around with the RW drive and hey presto here I am, going like a rocket

Congratulations on making it over that first hurtle.

Cheers

Welcome to LQ

and congratulations on getting use out of a 128 MB system.

Nice place, the Forest of Dean, some magical corners to be discovered. Say hello to the old mines and the old pubs for me

Thanks people, and yes Catkin the FoD has got some magic to it and I'll be popping down the George at St Briavels to treat myself to a pint as soon as I;m done here
