I tried Ubuntu, but I'm too fond of some of my Windows software (and WINE was a pain in the ass), so I installed Windows XP right back.

Maybe I'll get Ubuntu on a second computer.


So... do you use Linux?
 
Nah never.

Only ever used windows and mac.

Whats Linux like?
 
uh when im at my moms i sometimes do caus i installed linux ubuntu over windows caus she had a problem with her laptop bla bla bla ... and she loves linux especialy the console lol but i too am to used to windows
 
Linux is great.
I would just do a duel boot. use about 25gb for it.
 
yer i had that on my old laptop but never realy used it much :/

It's... different. I don't know how to describe it, you'll have to try it yourself (or google a couple of screenshots).

But like deadlycode, I'm too used to Windows. So I switched back.

I'll open a topic later with more info about Linux.
 
i only like ubuntu in the matters of the speed, the startup and shutdown is better than any windows version
but in matters of applications still windows rocks
and windows is more user-friendly than linux
 
yes windows is easyer to use if you are used to it BUT if you have never used windows and allways used linux it would be the other way around and windows would be the hardest to use if you know what i mean
 
I use Linux with a virtual machine. I like it. But it's not my main OS.

Any hacker or coder should use it though, it's much more adapted to that type of person.
 
I've got BT4 (Back Track) on 1 of my Virtual OS'es, it is nice but i like W7 more.
 
I occasionaly use Linux. Not all the time though .

yer i used to have duel boot but i deleted linux caus i hardly used it caus win7 suits my needs better and also ther are not very meny games/programes that are directly useable on linux so you have to use other programes to make them work and its all such a faf
 
To me, unless you have a special situation, it's not worth the time and HD space.
 
HDD space doesn't really matter to me because it takes 20/1000 gigs on my desktop
 
1TB hard drives are not expensive, about $80 USD. But there is a reason. 1TB HDDs are extremely unreliable and they break within two-years. DO NOT buy one.

Instead, buy two 500GB HDDs and use the Slave and Master ribbon cables to fit them.
 
ok kl i allready have a 500GB but i need a new power pack first

anyway please revert back to topic.
