I need RAM

No comments
I need RAM and lots of it :-) Just installed Kanotix and my system takes a dive every time i run XAMMP. For those of you came late, XAMMP is a all in one solution for a web server. So if you dread compiling and configuring Apache + MySQL + PHP and rest u need to take a look at this. It works on most systems.

So where was i?? Yes i need RAM My current rig runs AMD(what else ;-) ) duron 1.2 Ghz with 128Mb RAM. It was fine until i upgraded my distro to kanotix that i noticed my machine was thrashing while working. This made me search for distros which were not hard on configuration and would run fine with old systems. This took me to SLAMPP which is based on SLAX but comes with XAMPP preinstalled..

Lets see if it works otherwise i have to buy some RAM for my old PC. If you are interested in finding the right distro for u may i suggest distrowatch it lets you search on so many parameters.

BTW linux is the way to go if u want to learn about real computing. How things work underneath. And running linux is cool too. For developers it is the best, unless ofcourse you work on Micro$oft technologies. If u work on .NET u might be interested in MONO. This project makes it possible to run .NET on apache

hey did u visit my site on zeeblo. You should cause i have just installed JAWS CMS on it and it rocks.
