DEAR ALEX,<br>
THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR INPUT REGARDING PUTTING TOGETHER A
DESK TOP SYSTEM FOR QGIS. YOU ANSWERED MY CONCERNS. BUDGET IS,
OF COURSE, IMPORTANT BUT NOT A LIMITING FACTOR; I DON'T WANT TO
BE "PENNY WISE, POUND FOOLISH". I AM A LITTLE RELUCTANT TO US
LINUX AS I DO NOT HAVE GREAT CONFIDENCE IN MY </div>

Don't skip the option to try out QGIS on a ready to go linux system
(and some 50 other GIS applications) with the OSGeo Live DVD. You
can download the DVD iso image, and run it on any computer with 1 GB
of RAM -without touching the installed system- just to "kick the
tires" and see how you like it...<br>

<div dir="ltr">PROGRAMMING SKILLS AND AM MORE OF A POINT AND CLICK
COMPUTER USER. I USE QGIS FOR MINERAL EXPLORATION HERE IN NEVADA
SO MOSTLY COMPILE MAPS FROM TOPOS AND THEN ADD RASTER OR VECTOR
FILES OF INTEREST (GEOLOGICAL, MAGNETIC OR GRAVITY FILES, ETC.)
TO FIND FIELD WORK TARGETS. I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT
INNARDS MY SYSTEM SHOULD BE HEAVY IN SO THAT WHEN LAYERS ARE
ADDED OR THE ZOOM IS USED THE MAP IS QUICKLY REDRAWN AS THE WAIT
TIME IS A BIT FRUSTRATING.<br>
FROM YOUR REPLY I BELIEVE I'LL START WITH WINDOWS 7-8 AS MY O.S.<br>
AGAIN, MUCH THANKS.<br>
J.R.<br>
P.S I WOULD JUST LIKE TO GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO ALL LIST
CONTRIBUTORS AND THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE WORKED SO HARD TO MAKE
QGIS HAPPEN. TRULY OUTSTANDING AND SELFLESS.<br>
