I have to agree with sabre 100. My experiences exactly.. with one more issue hardware is a problem. From contemporary graphics cards to modems.. sure,,you can get a linux modem,,and it may work.. otherwise it takes a lot of time just to get a modem working.. and then there is the graphics card,, even when the big two come out with drivers,, the card is not always fully functional. yea,, yea, i know,, some people can.. but,, there are many who cannot as well,, and even those being pretty computer savvy as well... but hehe,, I'll prolly try it again sometime soon.. On my next 'puter build, i am going to use the older one to connect to the internet,downloads,email,etc,,and this will be some version of linux.. My win box will be for games,graphics,photos,and all the other stuff that linux just doesn't have top quality software support for... gimp for graphics? naa,, not for me,, same with whatever nle's are avalable for my camcorder,,just cannot compete with the top three or more avalable in windows... but there are more free Go games for linux than windows,, hehe go figure... anvil
