I'm using Kubuntu...the most Windows-like. You still need to do a fair bit of command-line work to get it the way you like it, but I'm working on that, still. I used to be an old VoodooDos guy...back when...so it won't take forever...but anything Unix related is new to me.
Fast? I dunno, just yet...but I was sick of Vista...I'll keep ya updated. |

Yeah, Vista was definitely a dog, for sure! I prefer Linux on my home machine, but am familiar with the major players at work.
I may go ahead and download it. I am using Ubuntu, so I'll check out the debian package. Maybe someone has already released a binary? guess i'll check. The Unix stuff does take a little getting used to, but for those familiar with DOS, it's not too bad. Surprising how many have never touched or seen a terminal window or command prompt, these days! Good Luck! |

How is the power use?? Of course, 'most anything does. Konqueror itself seems pretty standard...not so much better or worse than Firefox or Chrome...Exploder, of course, blows. |

So then why try it?? A million reasons...to support the open source movement...to get away from Vista, the worst crap ever called an operating system...because after I installed the new 500 gig HD on my laptop after the old drive crashed, anything less seemed to be an insult...for the experience of learning Linux... How am I doing so far? |
