Brief Review Of Vector Linux SOHO

Posted by timothy on from the pointy-lines dept.

duncan bayne writes "I have just installed Vector Linux SOHO 5.0 RC2 on my old P150 laptop. Overall I was very impressed, and have posted a brief review on my blog. This distro has a lot to offer, especially to schools and other organisations trying to extract more useful life from obsolete hardware."

    The system requierments for soho state ....

    System requirements

    Vector Linux SOHO is relatively heavy compared to the standard version. It is recommended that your system meets these requirements:

    * Processor: Pentium III compatible or better (so you may use AMD).
    * Hard disk: 3 GB for the system, then you need more for your personal files.
    * Memory: 128 MB, spare 256 MB for comfort.
    * Video card and Monitor capable of 1024x768 resolution, 24 bits.
    * Standard mouse, keyboard, sound card, CDROM, etc.

    so I can see why he may have a few problems on a p150
