lmao, as usual, more sarcastic responses than real ones.

Anyone here had success running Leopard on a PC?
And is Linux user friendly yet? Ive tried it a few times (most recent was 3 years ago) and its still harder than shit to use.

I love Vista, but I hate dealing with instability and spyware/viruses. I like the ease of use, and I like my programs...

Anyone switched over and like the results? (Of either Leopard or Linux)

The Ubuntu core is quite user friendly, it has a graphical installer and a graphical package manager + a lot of the features are from windows anyway. Kubuntu uses KDE which is pretty much the Windows equivalent of a linux GUI, if you want hard go for a Gentoo stage 1 install

Phre0nBurn · 12-07-2007, 05:41 AM

what about running windows apps? and things like... installing stuff.. is it still all command line? or have they created a double click installer yet... lol

Well it depends on what you want to install, most of the apps are available through the graphical single click installer, but for anything obscure that you are looking for require compiling through the console, but it's easily done if it has no dependencies, and most programs are in the ubuntu repositories if you are using ubuntu so no problems there

Phre0nBurn · 12-07-2007, 06:20 AM

Hmmm....
Maybe Ill toy with a dual boot for a little bit and see how I like it...

Does Ubuntu have the dual boot option during install?

micfire · 12-07-2007, 06:37 AM

OS X all the way baby. If I need Windows progs, I just fire up Parallels and run them on OS X

Yup it sure does, you just gotta partition properly so you don't fuck up your windows install
