Hours to install a modern Linux distro my ass. No GUI? LOL. That comment does not even deserve a response. And for his information windows does not work on almost every machine out there. Does windows run on Sparc? Alpha? PPC even? Thats why you will find *nix or some other alternative to winblowz running on them. There are so many errors in that article to the point that I actually pity the author who wrote it. Crappy article.

It's just the title I thought was unfair - Awkward is akin to filling some complex tax form - Linux distros aren't as bad. This message was edited Jul 6, 2004 1:30 AM
