Idd, I'd rather choose Linux because I don't have the money to buy a mac (mini). The only problem with linux is that how hard I try, nothing works. I've tried installing glib>k+ on mandrake10, Red Hate9 and Suse9.2 . The first 2 gave errors, and suse even didn't get further than "dunno what host, please specify". But I'm learning it atm using this great guide: http://linux.about.com/od/embedded/l/blnewbie_toc.htm still, I noticed one thing; all those distro's have so less tools that are stated in the guide. None of them knows linuxconfig, ipconfig, ... Worst thing was Red Hat 9. It doesn't know init and I had to create a link to shutdown in the PATH. |

i meant ipconfig, like windows, but maybe this is also a tool you have to install. Nevertheless, there also on other small problem, ATI Linux drivers :( . I hope Susu9.3 has them for a Radeon9600, because RedHat9 and Mandrake9.1 did not have them :gay: . I'm now moving all my data :grin: . Going to take a while :spank: . Ow, this is one for me > :leet: , sometimes I need a :nutkick: and some :spank: , because sometimes I always :rod: with :banana: and even before :rtfm: . :D |
I'm been using Windows since Win3.11 and although I've had some lesser moments in the Win9x times; since Windows 2000 things have been going very great. I will not complain about a working product; Windows 2000 SP4 or Windows XP will do exactly what you want them to if you tweak them a bit! I will not recommend Mac (too expensive) or Linux (too difficult and restrictive) to anybody; unless they do a major overhaul (mac=cheaper hardware; linux=better support; more userfriendly) |
Mac has a lot of budget models... Mac mini and emac for example. Realy payable solutions. The support for linux is getting bigger and bigger every day. But userfriendlyness is no excuse anymore. It's not much different from windows nowadays... |
the Mac Mini or Emac offers less hardware power then PC counterpart and is no good alternative. you can not game on it, and you need a G4 or G5 to really enjoy the multimedia experience of the Mac Linux might be getting user friendly, but it's nowhere near windows territory, they have a long way to go; again gaming is left completely out of the picture. I play games on my PC; linux and/or Mac are NOT for occassional gamers. |
