[News] Review of Sabayon Linux, Fedora 7 Linux (Testing), and Windows Vista

Sabayon Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Who's it best for?
| 
| The full Gentoo experience is included in Sabayon, so this might be
| a nice option for those who like Gentoo but want a quicker way to
| get a working installation.
| 
| If you have no internet connection, I'd recommend not even trying
| to use Gentoo or any derivative, because it is a heavily
| broadband-centric distro.
| 
| The DVD versions of Sabayon include a full portage tree and lots
| more software, so you may be able to get a reasonably useful 
| distribution out of one of those without an internet connection.
| 
| As for me? Well, I'm once again left relegating this distribution
| to join its brethren in the great vertical storage cylinder
| under my desk.

Fedora 7 Test 1 Preview

,----[ Quote ]
| It was nice to see that Fedora will also be adopting the 3D desktop,
| although it might not be a selling point, I would assume why would
| you not include it if everyone else was. It is as simple to setup
| by going to the Control Center and enabling it which also is a plus.
| Some other distributions do not have it setup that easy or make it
| as noticeable to point out.
| 
| As with any testing release, it is not suggested to run this on a
| production system as there are bugs still being worked on.

First Experiences with Windows Vista

,----[ Quote ]
| So my verdict about Vista in the first day is, that its not a
| definite improvement over previous Windows versions, most notable
| Windows XP, and surely not against other Operating Systems. Upto
| now I have not seen anything that is a geniune innovation.
| Microsoft trumpeted a lot about translucent windows and security
| in their add campaign, sure security is better now, but they can
| not claim it to be the 'most secure system ever', and translucent
| windows have been in MacOSX for years.
