yeah, I’m with Ryan. I can’t understand how anyone who isn’t getting a pay check from MS, can possible say that any version of Windows is better than Ubuntu. Maybe some other Linux distros…MAYBE. But Ubuntu is so damn easy to use, and EFFICIENT. My computer runs faster with beryl and 20 browser windows open than it ever did on XP.“Mac OS—for people who don’t want to know why their computers work.Linux—for people who want to know why their computers work.MS-DOS—for people who want to know why their computers don’t work.Windows—for people who don’t want to know why their computers don’t work.”

Did Microsoft bribe you with a nice laptop like they are all those bloggers?

Have you tried Ubuntu 6.06 or 6.10? Its the most stable ubuntu version than the previous versions. Tell Me can windows do the “window cube” effect” of XGL. I don’t think so

I don’t understand all this buzz about windows vista… I’ve installed WinVista RTM but they didn’t impressed me… They are tooooooo slow…. Games and apps are running slow… I prefer ubuntu edgy with beryl…

I’ll try VISTA today.

But Ubuntu with Beryl installed looks impressive.Also with fish:// and webdavs://-support in editor and konqueror.As webdeveloper, this is essential for me – Lets see if VISTA can catch this .

Not being funny, but any Microsoft OS is gonna have the one piece of software responsible for OS death by spyware. Internet Explorer. I’m happy with Edgy, I can watch DVB TV and listen to DVB Radio, I can play Quake 4, and for the most part I don’t even have to go searching on the net for the programs I use

WTF?! Are you high?! You’re going to put Vista on that piece of crap?! LOL! Doesn’t seem to eat up all the RAM on the system” If you knew anything about Linux, you’d see thats the way it works… it caches all the ram… clown.

… go Edgy. This didn’t work out as you expected. You were expecting gazillions replies, but no… this will not put you up in Page Rank.Try installing Edgy from zero and then compare it to Vista. But include the pre-installed software on the comparison. Otherwise you are being foolish, or vodka drunk. But i guess steve balmer will kiss your ass with crap like that you posted… . So, we’ll talk in a few weeks when Vista is crawling and virus full…

XP works fine. Firefox 2. Thunderbird. Cygwin. I did have to pony up for WebDrive to go with Bingo.
