Clocking in - Hairy Jones - 11-28-2016
Hi
Switched to Linux Lite to put my money where my mouth is. My feeling is that my last distro was run by folks who's hobby is wring new operating systems and not fixing bugs. For me there have been a few bells and whistles added but basically the OS on my Macintosh Performa had it cracked 20 years ago. Fed up with ridiculous filing systems, going round the houses to create a favorites file and don't want my CPU clogging up with daft things like transparent windows.
So here I am.

Welcome! I have been here about a week, coming from a PC world. Is seems that the Linux world is where PC and MAC users can finally unite!

Welcome Steve. Just out of interest, why did you choose the 32 bit version when you have all that RAM? Also how do you find Libre Office for your writing. ?

If I want to max the RAM to the 8 GB will I have to reformat and install LL X64?

Yes, to install the 64bit, d/l and burn the 64bit iso to dvd (or usb), you can select in the install options from live dvd -
wipe and install LL
