finally decided to try out linux->suse10->kde (for the ----------ing first time) since I dont play pc games anymore.








afterthoughts, installation was easy, it found all the drivers for my laptop. figuring out how to make it play divx/mp3 was a pain (for a linux newb). booted on winxp, and I have to say, linux is a lot more graphical (at least mine is).

oh, and here's a BIG ***

Are you using a wireless network card?

I'm happy w/OSX but I have a junker PC laying around, I might load linux if I ever get the time. What do they call the applications menu at the bottom? Dock?

yea(integrated wireless), i bought my laptop without OS. Loaded winXP first, and I had to find the drivers for pretty much EVERYTHING (wireless, ethernet, sound, video, etc..). Tried the Suse Live CD (linux running off the single cd rom and recognized ALL my components!) so I went ahead and installed the real deal.

thing about windows is that almost all the programs for it are not free, or its shareware/trial. I found myself installing open source software on XP anyway e.g OpenOffice, opera, etc- -. So, i figure why not go all the way.

All in all, I have both XP and Linux installed, just in case a website requires IE.

the bottom thingie is called whatever.. taskbar, dock, panel, launch menu blah blah

its called...... osxdeskbar i think. its lame and requires that other programs be run.
