If Linux ran more games and apps it would own Windows.

5/5

"Now I'm impressed ... [but] how many hours upon hours would I have to work to get ..." --anotheraddict

No pain, no gain.

"The only weigh down is that not everyone can install Linux ..." --megamonster

Nothing is stopping them from learning.

"... but can it run SupCom? Will it run Red Orchestra? Half Life? Photoshop? Rhinoceros?" --frsrblch

It can.

When the shit hits the fan, some guys run and some guys stay. The people that stick around while there are benefits to reap in (like beryl) ... whine, bitch and leave through the hardships --- are pussies. Luckily, the nature of Linux weeds out pussies, and when you have spartans doing the development it can't go wrong.

^^ no pain no gain? not really... my stripped XP with personal mods literally takes me 30 minutes to setup on a brand spanking new install, if it didn't take such a crapload of time investment I'd hop over to ubuntu this second... that and game compatibility. I might just have to throw it on a spare PC and see what i can do with it

@anotheraddict

I can't really aruge your points: they are valid. But they don't really contradict anything I said either.

here is the link to the games list: http://transgaming.org/gamesdb/ if there is a star next to it it means that is supported. But for the people who really want to play why dont you just set up a dual boot configuration?

I don't believe Ubuntu installs with Beryl as the default desktop manager.

I had Ubuntu installed and had to add a few packages and install video card drivers, but once it was running it was pretty cool. The rotating cube desktop is really nice, and they didn't even show all of what it can do. Not sure what the point was of making those icons float around, though.

I'm willing to give just about anything a try. Once I finish upgrading my primary system, I'll see if I can kitbash something and install this OS.

Linux can't be a superior OS than Vista. Because windows has majority if not all the supports from major corporations and developers.

^And what do you think the corporations servers are running on? Maybe Windows has the biggest marketshare but Vista sucks and I'm sure many enterprise will stick to XP because they dont need all the fancy stuff in Vista.... And Linux IS superior to Vista: smaller memory footprint, runs great on legacy hardware, has any development tools you can think off,easy to use(depends of the distribution you choose), do everything windows do, run windows applications,more secure, I could continue for a long moment, etc, etc.... But in the end they are both good OS which do what they're supposed to do.... What I highly despise about this whole OS war thgy are the fanboys...
