I though the best way to sort this out would be to ask people who may have had experience with this.
I am currently running Windows Vista on my laptop, the problem is I only have 1Gb of RAM, which causes some problems as Vista just eats up RAM. My processor isn't exacly s**t hot either (1.6Ghz, I can't remember the make right now) which adds to the problems, especially when rendering videos.
I do lots of video editing and 3D modelling and design and often have 6 or 7 programmes running at once.
I was just wandering if switching to either Linux or Ubuntu would be a better choice for me.
(please note: I do not get along with Mac OS's such as leopard, which sounds bad for someone who does video editing)
P.s. - I have a 3.6Ghz Pc with 2Gb of RAM, but the problem is I can't drag that into uni, so if people suggest new Pc's remember my problem is specific to laptops.
