Does anyone know the system specks for unbuntu 8.10?

I'm not sure what you mean by the system specs. Do you want to know about the minimum requirements? If so, Ubuntu's recommended minimum is this (from their documentation): [quote]Ubuntu should run reasonably well on a computer with the following minimum hardware specification. However, features such as visual effects may not run smoothly. * 700 MHz x86 processor * 384 MB of system memory (RAM) * 8 GB of disk space * Graphics card capable of 1024x768 resolution * Sound card * A network or Internet connection[/quote]
