Hello
My mother has a really slow P4 1,5 ghz XP computer. I wanted to give here a
pen drive with Ubuntu on for Christmas, so that she can have a fast computer
igain. When you have installed ubuntu, there is a option to put it on a
pendrive rigth? Is i difficult to get to work?
And how big should the pendrive be? I dont want to use so much mony on it,
because i also want to buy her a LCD screen.
In advanced
Thank you for any help

While your goal is noble, your way is wrong.
You will not make her Windows XP computer faster by installing Ubuntu
on a pen drive for her. If you want her to have a more responsive
computer, then an Ubuntu insallation on the hard disk _may_ be more
responsive than XP on the same hardware. Maybe not. And an Ubuntu
installation booting from a USB drive will _not_ be more responsive
than a properly configured Windows XP installation.
Either fix her Windows installation or install Ubuntu on the hard drive.
