Hi there,
I got a Dell Precision T5500 (with 24 GB of memory; it seems I really need about 8)
yesterday, and after organising a Displayport-cable today was able to run a first test,
writing to an external USB-2 disk:

Would it be better to run a Linux on it? Will using the eSata connection for the external
HD make much of a difference?
