    Heres the reason why I like GNOME. Uses less resources, easier to config your hardware (as in sound and video). It has tons of neat tools like a CD-Burning program. It also feels more like windows. If your Linux savy then try out WindowMaker. It's a clone of the NeXTStep GUI.

    It uses less but offers better functionality, They are about evenly complied... Plus we are in the age of a 2gig Ram... what do you care... Also KDE has more window functions...

    So far i've only seen four people with PCs with 2GB ram. All you need is 512 unless you do some hardcore stuff like graphics and CAD. Some times a hardcore gamer.

    256MB for games is hell, i should know......
  • SlashSlash
    Hell? No, its pretty enough for me unless you mean doom 3.

  • BODBOD

    I;ve got a gig of ram. But why WOULD you need 2 gb of ram right now?
  • BODBOD
    unless your into video editing or a high end server then probably no

    i blame them if it says away then why do they try to contact me?

    Yeah, I get that alot with Trillian. I forgot to close it and those popup notices during the game are very annoying.
  • BODBOD
    dont close it, just turn off systray alerts, pisses me off when i watch videos as wel

    I like those, but they do screw with StC, but not enough to bother me.

    -Q
  • BODBOD
    i ahev them on usually but when i have something full screen they go off
  • QQ
    I hope Tril3 has an option somewhere "Disable systray alerts when another app is fullscreened".

    -Q
  • BODBOD
    or "turn off when away"
  • BashBash
    When I have a full screen game, i just put the setting from Avail to Invisible
  • SlashSlash
    Is there a Trillian for Linux?
  • QQ
    By strange co-incidence, Babb asked this question too...

    I see...
    Anyway, I don't have an internet connection in linux at all, so it's not needed.

    Exactly what I thought.

    I'd say the standard now is 512, with a few of us possibly having 1 GB. That doesn't mean software is ALLOWED to be bloated and slow.


    I've seen a compaq server on ebay, i think it had 8 intel xeon 2.0ghz processors and 16gb of ram! i think it wen for about 16,000$ us! one word, WOW!!!

    as for software not allowed to be bloated, i agree. i have an intel celeron 416 with 128mb of ram. if software get too bloated i won't be able to anything with it.
