XP â Still no reason for upgrade? Vista users f***ing livid?
,----[ Quote ]
| The follow on question that stemmed from no person in my opinion
| being able to give a definitive answer was: âWhat are you doing
| with Windows that I cannot do with Linux?â
|
| At time of writing this the jury is still out on that one.

UNIX/Linux has Wine, but Windows can't run UNIX/Linux programs.

Ubuntu Is Pretty Cool (My Linux Experiment)
,----[ Quote ]
| * I had an old Windows XP laptop that was slow and
| required constant attention. One of the great
| things about almost any Linux distribution is that
| is small and efficient. It is often recommended as
| a good way to get some new life out of an older
| machine.
|
| * Ubuntu makes it easy. I picked the Ubuntu
| distribution because it was easy to figure out and
| install. The software takes you step by step
| through the process and even gives you the option
| to split your hard drive so you can have both
| Linux and Windows (or whatever) on the same
| machine.
|
| * I am not sacrificing much (if anything). As the
| title to this post suggests, Ubuntu is pretty
| cool. True, the user interface is a little
| different but, having oriented myself (and pretty
| quickly for an old guy, I am proud to say), it
| seems a little better than Windows. It does well
| all of the things my old Windows machine did
| poorly. I have faster web-browsing now through my
| trusty Firefox browser. Web apps (like Google
| Docs) are operating system agnostic and I have yet
| to run into a major plugin that is not also
| available for Linux distributions. Open Office (a
| free Office-like application) works very well with
| most of my Office files (and others). There are
| also tons of new productivity and gaming
| applications to explore as well, all with little
| (some would say no) risk of virus or malware
| infection.

Windows 7 is the same as Ubuntu"
,----[ Quote ]
| I asked him last night about his initial impressions of Windows 7 and, in
| typical teenage fashion, as he was bouncing between Meebo windows and browser
| tabs, he said it was ânice.â I managed to extract from him that his favorite
| feature was that he was able to use his Zune with it, something that had
| never worked terribly well with Ubuntu. Otherwise, he said, âWindows 7 is the
| same as Ubuntu; there just really isnât anything different about them.â
