I upgraded a few weeks ago on my Tough Book and I found it very good I have nebulosity 4 , PHD 2 , Ceil Cartes , a Sbig STI guider , and Sbig STF8300C all running on it and controlling the G11 as well .
so far has not crashed or no conflicts actually it is all running very smooth .
one thing I didn't know was that you can run it in desktop mode where do I find this selection ?
anyway I think it is quite a good OS and that is coming from someone that predominately use MAC .
clear skies to all
cheers Pete
