HI Roy, I'm using a pIII 600 w/1gig ram with core 5 and a delta 66 and it works pretty well. I can't use jamin, slows it to a grinding halt, but everything else seems to run fine. I never played with ccrma on other installs so I can't comment on that.

<br>> Delta 1010<br>><br><br>hi roy, i also use a pIIII 733Mhz 384MB and i upraded from planet fc1<br>to fc5 (well, fresh install) and i have no complaints. it's a little<br>slower, but not annoyingly so. it sooo nice having newer packages

basic desktop stuff i even use gnome and it's bearable.<br><br>hth,<br><br>bernie<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>PlanetCCRMA mailing list<br><a href="mailto:PlanetCCRMA@ccrma.stanford.edu">PlanetCCRMA@ccrma.stanford.edu
