Thanks. I had found this site and was surfing around too see what the
possibilities are for this...gonna take some time to sift through it
all. Do you by any chance have any advice to offer here? What you 've
found that works well or what doesn't? Recommendations for particular
applications? I am not a doctor and I don't play one on TV either but I
do work with a medical practice from time to time. Some of their apps
eat RAM for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Real hogs. Really bog down the
machines. I have been kicking around the idea of asking them to try an
open source solution but first I have to have one ready. So I am
thinking of putting a box together with Fedora and some good medical
management software for them to try. I know at least two of their
programs (neither of which cause any problems) are just a client at
their end connecting to a UNIX server, Medical Manager is one and the
name of the other escapes me right now. The big offender is apparently
a program called , Centricity , which according to their tech support
needs 1GB of RAM above the OS's needs to run well because of its slick
little interface. I just want functionality, glitter is nice but it
don't count for much in my book if the user is constantly dealing with a
frozen application. All advice, opinions, etc are welcome.
Thanks,
Max
