What's the point other than the price?"
You get what you pay for!!
1. Pay nothing and you get nothing ->(Linux as free download ISO DVDs)
2. Pay a little get a little -> (Linux shipped with paid
support/subscription)
3. Pay more get more - >(buy at least in BEST BUY like I did with 600 on
the table and get Win7 64bit 6GB RAM dedicated graphics with HD)
or >>> hir3 a LINuX gUy from MIT who kNoW$ all aBoUT h0w tHInGs w03k)

Ok, so linux is not ready for home yet, so what?
Since Ubuntu has implemented all the stupid functions of Windows and Is
looking more and more like Windows each days.
What's the point other than the price?
And I am talking about unrelated topics because when I asked about how to
normalize an object in RS nobody answered my question.
My knowledge and experience on Linux :
-Used to be an expert in command lines 10 years ago
-Developed applications for QNX (Realtime Unix with gcc and make)
-Installed and configured Ubuntu Server for file sharing (no ui)
-Installed and compiled many things on Ubuntu
-I know a lot about how a Linux system works (I am not a master but I know
enough)
-I have put my entire family (3 computer) on Linux (and for the last 2
years, no problems)
And if a guy like me is having a bad day with Linux, try to imagine a
normal user.
Contrary to windows, when Linux is working (hardware solved) everything
will work forever ever (unless an update destroy everything).
Tomorrow I will install again Linux all day long, because I can't stand
the idea of going back to Windows.
I am verrrrrry frustrated.
Maybe someone was right mentioning that Ubuntu is not Linux. It's full of
user interface that don't quite work.
There is no privacy or file protection on Windows, Registry is a mess,
configurations is also a mess.
Windows made enemy with all the programmers and professionals by
removing/not improving the command line.
Command line is the most important thing to lower the price of software.
I hate windows for making people complete computer retards with clicks
everywhere.
Windows users don't know where they are putting their stuff (picture,
documents etc).
What is unfair to Linux in comparing it to Windows is that normally
windows is already installed and configured with all sorts of spyware
straight from HP, Dell, IBM etc. While you have to install yourself Linux.
Have you ever try to install the drivers for an HP computer? Have you ever
try to figure what is the proper driver in the download list on their
website? Linux may not be so bad compared to that.
Anyway if you manage to make Linux work and install your software, using
it is pure fun.
