Spoiler Version ###:

Hello fellow members.I made this thread in order for us to discuss linux related problems,software and distribution choices ,compiling and also offer advice to those who wish to embark on this confusing yet enlightening adventure,the world of UNIX operating systems.

That's what's life about,same thing goes with linux.Make your choices wisely.

That link didn't make me feel better, at all!

[SBfreak]

The first symptom is laughing anon.

Also guys,take a look at the new,ehm old,leaked (whatever) Ubuntu Font.
The new Ubuntu font - how to download it (but why you shouldn't) | OMG! Ubuntu!

That link didn't make me feel better, at all!

The curse is harder to lift than I though.

The curse is harder to lift than I though.

Our university runs on Linux (Ubuntu, for normal stuff, cause they're cheap) and Mac OS X (for the designing classes). So I'm somewhat familiar

[SBfreak]

Ubuntu isn't cheap..it's free and open source.

[Sazzy]

Free is the cheapest form of cheap
I'm not saying it's bad, I'm saying they obviously have it cause it's free.

[tokiodrift1]

I like Ubuntu, its noob-proof, if you invest few hours..

[SBfreak]

Well it was designed to be easy to use,a good alternative to other mainstream operating systems.

for desktop use it just lacks the major apps

[tokiodrift1]

Yeah, but good for for some security tests.....^^

[Sazzy]

+1, I agree open source can be positive, but I wouldn't trade in my favo apps for it

[SBfreak]

for desktop use it just lacks the major apps

The way I see it major applications lack linux support.Hopefully that will change in the future.

lol, I'm not a programmer, but I think you're underestimating the work it takes to port an app. Plus it probably wouldn't be very profitable to do so

Exactly.Why port a damn application to linux when I can use that money and add improvements to the windows or mac version.Who cares about linux anyway.
