RE: [WISPA] Best Linux desktop
I am trying to wean myself from Microsoft as well. Ubuntu is a little easier then Fedora core 6. That's because it's a little more user friendly. The more I use Fedora core 6 the more I like it. So far Wine has run all the Windows programs I needed. The only program I want to try that I haven't yet is QuickBooks Pro. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Erik Jansson Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2007 12:06 PM To: wireless@wispa.org Subject: [WISPA] Best Linux desktop A little of topic but I know there are a bunch of linux people out there. I'm attempting to use windoze as little a possible and want to move to a good linux desktop. Unfortunately many of my programs are windows based so live switching if possible would be nice. I here that Wine runs windoze stuff pretty well, any feed back would be great. I'm no linux guru so something that is easy to work with and learn.

Re: [WISPA] Best Linux desktop
Tough to beat my Mac Duo Core laptop but. If you are going to run Linux as a desktop, get a fast processors, at least 2Gigs of RAM and then here are the best options to run MS apps: http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxoffice/ http://www.win4lin.com/ (long URL) http://info.vmware.com/content/GLP_VMwareWkstn?urlcode=Google_Products_Workstation&gclid=CJqT5PTVkIwCFRGCGgodZQ_iBA -Dee Alaska Wireless Systems 1(907)240-2183 Cell 1(907)349-2226 Fax 1(907)349-4308 Office www.akwireless.net - Original Message - From: Erik Jansson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: wireless@wispa.org Sent: Tue, 15 May 2007 09:06:11 -0800 Subject: [WISPA] Best Linux desktop > A little of topic but I know there are a bunch of linux people out there. > > I'm attempting to use windoze as little a possible and want to move to a > good linux desktop.
