The OS Wars - An Un-Biased review by a slightly above average computer user!
,----[ Quote ]
| During this testing phase I have tried the following Operating Systems:
|
| * Windows XP Pro SP2 (What was originally on this laptop and is
| currently being used)
|
| * Ubuntu 5.03 and 6.06 (Breezy Badger and Dapper Drake - Gotta love
| those code names)
|
| * PCLinuxOS 0.93a (technically still in alpha)
|
| * Windows Vista Ultimate (The one that will retail for $499 for the
| full version) Beta 2 & RC1
|
| * ReactOS 0.3 - Windows XP Like Clone
|
| [...]
|
| If you are:
|
| * An Average/Novice computer user I recommend sticking with WindowsXP
| or upgrading to Vista when it hits retail if you have a new (less than a
| year old) machine with a good video card (non-shared memory).
|
| * A Moderate computer user I recommend PCLinuxOS - of course after
| checking all your hardware/peripherials against the Hardware
| Compatibility List and ensuring that everything you need is Supported.
|
| * An Advanced Computer User (that knows how to edit the registery
| and perform routine tasks using scripts and/or the Command line (Terminal)
| then you probably don't need my recommendations.......but Ubuntu would be
| a good choice for you.
