Normally prefer using good ol' windows but what's nice about this is that you can install onto a Windows machine so that it dual boots Windows or Jolicloud - this will be great for the times you want to fire up your lappy quickly when all you want to do is send a quick email / surf the web; presumably it launches and shuts down faster than windows whilst using same or less battery. Great to have other options at least (no I can't be bothered to get used to linux).

I meant other the other, more involved builds (obviously).
Right, I'll just quietly slip away to embarrass myself elsewhere...
I ran Jolicloud for a while , but it didnt really get on well with the low quality SSd on my Aspire 1 - it would have been better with an HDD version though.
Nothing seems to run well on that crapheap SSD. I keep meaning to replace it with one which isn't completely useless, but there's always something else needs looked at first. The writes are just abysmal.Quote:

actually MeeGo runs really well on it .
Ohh, good point, I haven't tried MeeGo yet. I should have a look, just to see how it responds. I hear they're using BtrFS now, as well.
