[TriLUG] Windows|virtual desktops and use of resources

[Roger Broseus via TriLUG]

Michael,

Your PC looks pretty robust. I suggest watching what is happening in live time 
to RAM, SWAP. I like the GUI, "System Monitor."

top, a command line utility can give you the data to monitor but I never quite 
mastered it and I like the visual.
