| 114583 | 2003-01-17 06:21:00 | I have heard that it is quite good in some areas, and includes Codeweavers Crossover Plugin to use QuickTime and Windows Media Player plugins. I have never tried Xandros myself, but I use LindowsOS and am very happy with it. I assume you know that Xandros costs US $99? (i.e. It is not free like many other Linux distributions) | flyer590 (2523) | ||
| 114584 | 2003-01-17 06:35:00 | Well i'm on SuSE these days, i have another computer that I run on 'doze, but only use it 25% of the time. so im about 75% Linux using now. Your possibly better off using a common distribution, such as redhat, it will be alot easier to get help with. PS:I'm very happy with SuSE! .Clueless |

You are likely to have more success with Red Hat or Mandrake. They are much more widely used. So there is much more (user) support. The more "user-friendly" the distributions become, the harder they are to fix if you need to do something differently to the way the "experts" decided you should do it. This is my objection to GUIs. ;-) |
