I have to say that this is a new area for me that I am exploring. I don't mind the command prompts, but I prefer the GUI, due to speed and ease of use. I am just wondering how much RAM and CPU power does Linux use? The servers that I would eventually like to install Linux on are P3 Xeon processors with anywhere from 128MB of RAM up to 1GB. I am familiar with the history of Linux, but not the way it functions. I am going to follow your feedback and give it a test drive. I just asked the above questions to be ahead of the game when I implement it. Thank you.
