    thanks, have book marked it. Will saty with zorin os on the desktop for now. I downloaded the pclinuxos ultimate and in process of installing it to the laptop. If it turns out to be any good may convert the desktop, but for now zorin seems stable enough and does what i need!

    Re: Zorin OS

    Installed PClinuxOS on the laptop, good OS but i think its overkill. So many apps, aint got a clue what to do with them all.

    Still if Zorin goes pear shaped i think i'll install PClinux on the dekstop!

    Re: Zorin OS

    Been there,havent even got it installed but playing around with different OSs etc makes you pick it up real quick,only downside is trying run windows games or finding games/apps that i like to run on it.

    Wines good for running windows apps etc but a f***** to get around sometimes,
