| 109531 | 2002-12-28 09:47:00 | Well it wasn't this year (more like 3 years ago) but I use Gnu/Linux full time. Never looked back. I'm definetely having much more fun and get much more personal satisfaction now than I ever did/could with "The Other OS" :) | segfault (655) | ||
| 109532 | 2002-12-28 09:52:00 | When I get a decent modem I will DEFINEATELY give it a go. By that time there will be plenty of converts on this forum to answer my questions. BALDY:-) |

| 109535 | 2002-12-28 10:00:00 | Used Mandrake 8.2, RedHat 7.3 and Knoppix (something) before. Very limited use though, most was in mandrake 8.2, it was kinda forced learning which was good. I'm looking at getting a second machine so I can have it dedicated to linux because dual-booting becomes a pain in the arse, and VM Ware just isn't the right way. |

| 109536 | 2002-12-28 10:22:00 | oo yeah.. i been using SuSE8 on a dedicated Linux machine, and still have win'98 on the original one of similar spec... I'm about 75% Linux now csinclair83, Allthough i'm yet to experiance this, apparently some modems use win drivers and not all are supported well in Linux .Clueless |

| 109537 | 2002-12-28 10:37:00 | Win modems which most PCI modems are are software modems whereas external and the older ISA are true modems. The software modems do not work very well with Linux | mikebartnz (21) | ||
| 109538 | 2002-12-28 10:40:00 | Red Hat for about a year and a half now. Currently RH 7.3 which I am trying to get to see my NTFS drives. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
