Just be sure that if you're going to run an X server that your graphics card is still supported by the version of x.org that your chosen distro will be using. That's why I really ended up with Debian on my machine instead of Ubuntu (because the older x.org 6.9 doesn't break support for my now former card - ATI 9550 - wow its 2 whole years old).<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('2624','MrCorey'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('2624','MrCorey','You know that you wanna!
