Linux and me

RudeCat7:
Why do you want to try Linux? Are you really fed up with Windows?

Do you have any reason to leave the simplicity of installing Windows programs?

[QB]hey btw, what do you mean good emulator programs? i have several of those but cannot install any of them due to dependencies...[QB]

Just out of interest, what kind of dependecy problems do you have, or what RPMs are you missing? I've never had any dependency issues in Mandrake or Red Hat that I can remember that couldn't be resolved with what's on the distro CDs.

Hmmm 90% sounds pretty fucking good. How does Wine run DOS stuff that windows 95 would normally run in a  DOS box? If WineX worked good enough(or I learnt how to configure it and Linux), I would say f0ck it, and not bother to install W95 or W98(had to remove it to format my 8 gig)

What about Win4Lin...

Ok, so what is the point of compiling your own emulator instead of having a pre-made install exe? What good is being able to configure it for your system when you can barely make a hello world program, and you don't know shit about Linux so you don't have anything TO optimize it for? Unless compiling it on your own system gives a magic performance boost automatically. Seems illogical, but if it was true... that would rock.  :D
