Hi all, Well here is a question or decision that I am in need of
help with. I am going to list out the specs of 4 machines that I now have
and I need Help picking which machine is the best for running FC3
on. I know that the most powerful is always the best. But since
some of the machines Have new hardware I am not sure what kind of troubles I am
going to run into. My goal is to not have to dual boot the machine but have
it as a true FC3 box. Thanks for your help and advice. Mathew S. Nowend. Laptop 1. PIII 800 192 Ram 30 gig hd 12” screen Dvd drive Integrated NIC/sound/modem 32 meg intel graphics Laptop 2 Inspiron 8600 M Pentium M 1.8 ghz 2 gig ram 60 gig hd Dvd/cdrw combo drive Broadcom integrated NIC/modem Ac’97 sound NVIDIA ge force go 5200 64 meg video card 15.4” WUXGA screen Laptop 3 XPS Pentium 4 3.4ht 60 gig hard drive Dvd/dvdr-w 128 meg ATI radeon 9700 15.4” WUXGA screen Integrated broadcom NIC/modem Integrated AC’97 sound 2 gig RAM Wireless G Notebook adapter Pentium 4 3.0ht 1 gig ram 17” Flat panel 128 mb PCI ATI Radeon x300 160 gb SATA drive Intel pro 100mb NIC 16x dvd 16x dvd +/- rw Sound blaster live 24 bit audio card Wireless-G PCI apadter I am debating if I want to keep a windows box handy just to
have. Any suggestions here would be much appreciated. Is it also worth turning one machine into acting just as a
firewall? Or a firewall/web server? (Still getting prices on static ip’s) Thanks for all your help again, Mathew S. Nowend |
