I've been using Xandros since summer 2004. I have fully switched both
my desktop and laptop to Xandros. I have Xandros 2.5 Business on the
desktop and Xandros 3.0.3 Business on the laptop. I don't miss
Windows. I have BitTornado (works just like the Windows version), K3b
(works just like Nero), XMMS (just like Winamp except XMMS doesn't have
bookmarks), and so on. I have everything I need here on Xandros, even
web browsers and chat tools (Kopete and gaim).
I'm seriously thinking about making copies of Xandros 3.0.2 OCE,
Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and SimplyMepis, and handing these copies out to
friends.
If all goes well, I could be the local Linux guru. :)
