Sorry, maybe this isn't the right place...I uses Windows 7 on AMD E-350, Intel E7200, Intel i3, AMD Athlon II X4 610e, Intel i5.....and there is no drawback so far......it can playback blu-ray in full 1080P with DTS-HD/TrueHD, XBMC, 7MCE and streaming Netflix HD, Vudu HD, etc. Can Linux do it?

I already ordered the 3600. Is there any reason I should consider canceling and ordering the 3500, other than price?
Also, I ordered 2x4gb memory. Is this unnecessary/overload?
Thanks once more.
