The Reason Why I Loved Knoppix More Than Windows!

,----[ Quote ]
| I’ve been a Windows user since fourteen years ago, where the Window 95 was my 
| first computer operating system. Honestly, I was overexcited, as I owned my 
| first computer for the first time in life! I spent over 6 hours daily to 
| learn how to use the computer. Well, in less than three days, I’ve mastered 
| all the basic skills of the computer, including the Windows operating system 
| as well!     
| 
| Time flies by, and the Microsoft Windows have been rapidly changed in the 
| past fourteen years. Honestly, I tried every Windows version, from the 
| Windows 1.01 to the latest Windows XP Professional x64 Edition. Frankly, 
| Window Vista is the most terrible that ever released in all the Window 
| versions! I’ve encountered many difficulties and I really losing my temper on 
| this version.

Knoppix: live CD par excellence

| Knoppix is another classic example of the innovation that can come about when
| good code is avaiable under user-friendly licences like the GPL.

Knoppix 5.3.1

,----[ Quote ]
| At the recent CeBIT computer fair, Klaus Knopper finally released a new
| version of his popular Knoppix live-CD/DVD variety of GNU/Linux. The initial
| version was fine for the CeBIT crowd but had some problems, the most obvious
| of which was a mixture of languages in menus if you booted with the
| parameter "lang=" (by the way, it is now "lang=us" rather than "lang=en";
| this will take getting used to after many years of using "lang=en".)

Who needs Windows Vista when you can have Knoppix 5.1.1 Live DVD?

,----[ Quote ]
| Well, in the first place there is no comparison between the two.
| In fact, there can't be any. Why? Simply because, Windows Vista
| is plain Operating system, with very little bundled apps. Whereas,
| Knoppix is complete Operating System bundled with hundreds of
| software that ranges from games to office!
|
| When you install Windows Vista (it requires whopping 6.7GB hard
| disk space at a bare minimum!), what you will get is - much hyped
| 3D aqua Desktop, a so-called secure operating system that bugs you
| to hell - by asking for every stupid task to Continue. In addition
| to that, It had about a dozen utilities such as paint, notepad,
| wordpad and a few games.
