Hi all!

I have been reading about crypto currencies for several weeks now, and I have a few questions to get started:

- Is there any performance difference between some Linux based clients vs. Win client?
- How much memory & harddrive do typical Linux or Windows clients need for mining?
- If I want to mine/buy a few different currencies, would you recommend some multicurrency client, or own client for every currency?
- I'm not quite sure if I understood the difference between a "wallet" and "client"? Do I need a wallet application for storing the currencies, and a separate mining app for such purpose?

Thanks guys & gals!
