i have sent several questions off but i have a feeling they may not know

can this ram be upgraded ?

what would this been originally used for as i have never heared of this operating system

could a normal operating system be used ie vista , xp or 7 ?

does this seem a good pc to have for photo editing among other things

i know ram will have to be upgraded

You can upgrade the RAM but the processor isn't brilliant, it's a single core. It also comes with Ubuntu so won't support Adobe Photoshop natively.

You can run Gimp on it

It's slow. More or less the same spec as mine except I have more RAM. It's slow slow slow.
