I am still trying to deal with youtube videos in Opera (have to use FF for now) and finishing my skin... Wine will come into the game later...

This thing has 4 desktops (for now) and I am completely okay with it all for now...

I will see what comes next.

If I didn't play games on my PC, I would happily use Ubuntu (8.04).
It's really stable, has all the software I need and is not a major target for spyware, viruses etc like windows.

However I DO play games (and Wine isn't that good for running PC games on Linux), so I have a Linux dual boot system, but tbh, after I got Linux installed and working, I hardly ever boot up into it really. I just can't be bothered, Sure, Windows is more clunky to use than Linux, but it works ok.

When the day comes that I can install a PC game using Linux, Windows will be wiped off my system.

Linux is good for running dedicated game servers. Very good. You cannot use in-game console commands for windows because its not windows.

No anti-virus or spyware...Its great. That means you won't need any AV in the first place. Stupid Windows.

One day a board computer nerd will come along with his laptop, create a massive list of coding, submit it to Linux and everyone will be able to play Windows games on Linux :laugh:

I'm not holding my breath though...:sleep:

An OS is only as good as its admin, period. Vista haters remember that.

OT The_Merovingian was an OS.
