I would like to install Linux on my Sony notebook CNV1 (141A) 600Mhz 112MB
Ram
So will Linux understand the hard ware of the pc, how would I access the
built in camera
or operate the jog dial. Does it drag like windows, is 600 MHz good enough
for it.
Does it work with high-speed internet.
Will it understand the pc card slot, or memory stick. Is linux up gradable
and how often do it come.
which more flexible or shall I say tweakable win or linux
what is the main purpose of Linux, does it have enough for me to forget
windows.
I am currently running windows ME and it frustrating enough and I just want
to make sure that
I am not leaping into bigger problem. what are it limitation and is it
friendly with ms docs.

These are my question.
thanks

Steve

ps. can someone clue on difference between the version out there
