It has been two years since I made the cut at home over to Ubuntu on our laptops and server (with one lonely box running Media Center under XP–hello, J. River, I’m looking at you!) with absolutely no regrets and when Elwood Heavy Industries finds itself a little more flush with cash that box will go dark and I’ll run Media Center either in Wine or on a rogue Win2k install under Qemu. So anyway, CNET poses the question, “Is the Linux operating system for me?” and the answers are balanced as well as helpful. Worth giving it a read, especially if you have any curiousity about using a better and more secure OS.
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities. —Voltaire
There are men - now in power in this country - who do not respect dissent, who cannot cope with turmoil, and who believe that the people of America are ready to support repression as long as it is done with a quiet voice and a business suit.—John Lindsay
