Hello, I'm a Mac... and I'm a PC............. and I'm LINUX

Im off to Get my coppy 2 oh hang on non of my games will work and half the software i use for work wont eather.

the only time i personaly wud use linix is if i was going to use my pc for a specific task like say a midea center ore network sniffer cracker. now for the latter you can use a bootable thumbstick versoin like nopix. inshort windows may not be better but the software salectoin for it sure especaily when you are looking at graphical aplicatoins. thats not the fult of linix but u canot exspect developers to switch and only huge ones could make software for both platforms.

Have you tried it lately? I recently downloaded Ubuntu and thought it was unlikely to work on my Toshiba laptop, but it loaded right up and ran perfectly -- Internet, printer, everything was working right from the start. The only thing I needed to tweak was my dual screen setup. Yes, I'm sure that there are things that can be long & frustrating to get working, but anyone who still thinks that Linux is torturous to set up is outdated in their information.

I still keep Windows around because I've gotten used to all the features in Dreamweaver and Photoshop, and I'm sure the same situation applies to gamers, but there is really an incredible range of very high-quality open-source software that runs on Linux, and installation of any of it is as easy as clicking a checkbox.
