Yeah, gotta love linux Smile. It has most things Windows has like MS Office -> OpenOffice.org, Winamp -> Xmms, WMP -> Xine. And the kernel is much more superior because it's able to be configured by the user and has a kernel rate of 1 clock cycle (although default is 2.5), where Win XP is only 8 cycles.

KDE looks way cooler than anything Windowsblinds can do, too...and it's free!


It's been my experience (and yes I am running some versions of Linux as a desktop os, because I need it on a laptop that I can run nessus on for running security evaluations), that Linux is much more clunky, and just plain hard to manage on a desktop OS. I don't really care for KDE at all.

However, I have been hearing some REALLY great things about the new MAC OS, and it's based on BSD.

Of course I see things a little different... "And the kernel is much more superior because it's able to be configured by the user " to me is NOT a good thing for a desktop OS. Have you ever dealt with end users?? Windows is too complex for them, MAC is too complex for them... hell a pen and paper is too complex for them! Techies... whole different story.
