I want to get the kinks worked out before I move it to her office and reclaim the hex-core beast she&#8217;s using now. For an extremely low-end processor, the Atom does pretty well. It probably doesn&#8217;t hurt that it&#8217;s a quad-core model. I installed 4 GB of RAM, which is the most that it accepts. Performance for web browsing and email is snappy, and that&#8217;s all Barbara does most of the time. It&#8217;s running Kubuntu 12.04 LTS. Just for the heck of it, I may blow that away and take a look at Linux Mint.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">We&#8217;re still getting stuff cleaned up upstairs and moving components downstairs, but we&#8217;ve already made a lot of progress.

We&#8217;ll get that done, except that there&#8217;ll be a stack of boxes in the foyer awaiting pickup tomorrow by USPS.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<hr style=\"width: 65%; height: 3px; font-family: Arial;\" \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>09:20 &#8211; Yesterday I finally got around to building a new system on the Intel Atom motherboard I ordered a couple of months ago.
