| Entroper said: I tried Ubuntu on my main workstation, but after 2 hours or so of dealing with the package manager crashing and screwing up my install, I said to hell with it. I don't have time to fiddle with an OS to make it work right on my main computer, I need it to do what I want it to do when I want it to do it. |
Yeah and thats exactly the reason I use Ubuntu 7.04 on my main computer. Just as you can't understand ppl hating vista, I can't understand ppl not liking ubuntu. It's in so many ways more advanced than any Windows OS (this goes for debian in general, not just ubuntu).
Most people who rant about linux being bad probably just tried it for 15 minutes and when something didn't work, they just tossed it away saying "Linux is bad, I couldn't do XY" . As if you don't run into problems with M$ Software. HA HA HA
Of course you need time to adapt to a new type of OS when you change from Windows to Linux but this could well be the best spent computer time of your life...
BTW: I run Mac OS X on my media centre mini mac.
