Yes, I know Linux is free.

I was going to go to a store and ask a stupid associate where I can buy a Linux computer. and when he tells me I can't, I'll argue that they exist.

wait a second

why do you need 4 gb of ram

Unless you're doing some hardcore PC gaming, that's honestly just useless

Lawlzie, I make games and such. :3
Even if they're not made...I want to test them myself.
BESIDES, I'm moving on to more powerful modeling programs, getting a music program, eventually learn some programming, etc...

Unless you're making pixar quality stuff (BROTIP: You won't, at least not for a few years, and by then your job would demand a far more powerful computer), it's useless. 2 is usually more than enough for me, and I'm always working on something or playing something like Team Fortress 2.
