Best OS on T21

#1 Post by dave111 » Fri Mar 24, 2006 5:08 am

I have a T21 with 384Mb Ram, 20Gb Hd.
What is the best OS for general use - mainly internet.
Cheers.

I'd say XP.

Mine has only 256Mb and I don't think the 20Gb drive is gonna hack it - so I went with 2000.

My other laptop (non IBM) has 768Mb and a 7,200rpm drive and XP is good on that.

XP will work just fine. I am using it on my T21, but then again I have 512mb ram. Anything at 256mb or more will be just fine.
