Hello All, To expand on the subject line, I have inherited an Acer laptop on which I intend to install Linux. I think the machine spec should be OK for most linux distros...Core 2 duo T5600, 4GB, 120GB, Nvidia graphics. I am considering replacing the 120GB drive with an SSD, as it should smarten up the performance a tad and probably improve battery life a bit as well. Are there issues with running Linux from an SSD, that one needs to take into account when first installing/partitioning/whatever? Cheers, -- Regards, Terry Duell
