    Ubuntu runs on anything with little to no work. And any linux will run on any computer. The difference is how much work you have to put in. Some Linux's, like Ubuntu and Elive, require little to none. Others, like Gentoo, require a lot of work.

    No problem. Just keep in mind that most questions have been answered or discussed in some way or another. It never hurts to see if there is an ongoing discussion before posting a new thread.
