Ah, so you did not mean to ask whether you could use it as an operating system for a workstation? Either way, I believe that the more important question is, is it compatible with the particular hardware that you want to use? I believe that, so far, it is still not compatible with the hardware that comprises this workstation, with the only non-(MS Windows) operating system that I have found to be compatible with the hardware that comprises this workstation, being Ubuntu Linux, from about 12.04 onward. -- Bret Busby Armadale West Australia ..............
