distilled or reverse osmosis?

RO water has small amounts of minerals left in it...small amounts, but they're there nonetheless
They run RO + Dowfrost for all the cooling of spindles at a large machining company where my dad works, he says that the difference is negligable (sp?) but it's much easier to create RO water than it is to distill it.
I've been running RO + DowFrost in my system for 2 years now, not a spot of anything, anywhere.

no, didn't say why ro was better. when I went to the store I bought both... so I guess I'll just use distilled. Dowfrost is a new one for me. I was planning on using maybe distilled + zerox... but I want it to be uv blue and I think zerox is green so I'm not sure how it will look.

thanks man!
this will be what I'm using for my wc setup:
Swiftech Apogee cpu block
polarflo tt cpu block
hydor L35 pump
modded '77 bonneville heater core
dd single 5/14" bay res
masterkleer 7/16" ID tubing.
I'm going to attempt to mount the heater core on the back of my case using a swiftech radbox. I figure it should work as the radbox connects to the fan. Then I'll use a dd double heater core shroud to connect the fans to the heater core. I should know tomorrow if it will work. The shroud will get here tomorrow
