If you have any tips or advice, that doesnt diss anyone or anything else such as slagging the obvious lol ahem Windows.
Please tell us.
I myself have used Windows 95,98,98SE,2000 and now have XP.
I've used various server editions in my early network days but on my home systems its been those OS.
I love Windows, but it isnt perfect and has alot of holes.
However credit due to Mr Gates, hes done something no fucker else has and he also has the same syndrome as me...Aspergers so way to go the man with the mental disablity.
Now, I have recently tried Fether Linux and also Mepis...just do a search and the site will appear.
They are both Linux varients, and run via a LIVE CD.
Just DL the ISO and burn to a disk.
They both worked well, but Mepis for me I couldnt get it to access to internet or find my sound card....it looks SUPenis EnlargementRB and the GUI is exellent, really good.
Feather Linux found eveything and than some.
I got onto the net and my sound worked fine...my connection seemed faster than on Windows XP.
The GUI wasnt as good as Mepis or other windows versions, but it was alright and would do for me if I went to that distro.
I'm currently thinking to switching over to some varient of the Linux engine or a new OS entirely such as FreeOS or BEOS etc etc.
I reckon I'd make a partion on my HD and keep XP.
Share your thoughts on Operating systems and what you've used, use now and found the best.
Linux is a big beast ATM so whatever light can be shed to the masse'ss than do so here please.
Just dont bad mouth any group, like Windows and slag the whole thing off like I see everywhere on the net, its pointless and makes no sense when everyone in the IT world shares ideas and uses old ideas from someone else anyway.
