[dfs3] write-up on computer installation at Miners' Hall

[Stuart Thompson]

I can't help feeling you're being a bit paranoid with "Must work well on 
the hardware available – this means that fancy desktop environments like 
KDE 4 and Gnome 3 would be less suitable than lightweight environments 
like LXDE or XFCE". My 2000 vintage laptop (W98 machine too low spec to 
run XP) runs Ubuntu 10.04 with the Gnome desktop perfectly OK [A more 
serious issue is that latest versions of Flash and Ubuntu Unity desktop 
require SSE2 (look under flags in /proc/cpuinfo ) which older 
hardware/processors don't have].
