I dont know if linux has any programs like audacity... But it does actually have audacity. It can be a little finicky initially trying to get the sound piped correctly into the program via the Jack server, but once that is done, you should be right at home.
I personnally think your 700 MB or ram should be fine, but you may want to try lubuntu if you are finding that things seem too slwo. Lubuntu is a separate ubuntu installation that has a lighter window manager that is less resource intense. But if you install Ubuntu and want to switch to the lighter package, you can do that simply by installing the lighter window manager (no need to reinstall the whole OS!). I was previously running the full ubuntu desktop on a 3GHz P-IV with 512 MB ram and there were no noticable problems . Also running ubuntu on a 1GHz PIII with 384 MB ram, and that is very slow/performance impacted.

Subject: [ubuntulinux] Re: Considering Ubuntu
Thanks for all the replies. Your responses amke me want to try it out. I am not a gamer. I don't think I use any real exotic programs. My wife downloads PFDs for her business. I was also interested in time management and goal setting programs. Use use some audio programs and watch youtube type stuff. Does Linux have anythign like Audacity for recording audio? I live about 45 from Anchorage (actually in Wasilla, Sarah's home town) where there is a Linux group but can't make it for a few weeks. I understand that no computer is immune from infections but realize that Linux has a very good track record and I'm tired of infections. Is my 750 MBs of RAM sufficient to run Linux?
Thanks
GB
