The shittyest distro
Aloone_Jonez:
Being a Windows user I'm not too bothered about customising things but I deem Windows more customisable than Vector Linux, and Redhat is slower than XP. Vector Linux is improving though with respect to becoming more streamlined and hopefully it will become more customisable too.

--- Quote from: mobrien_12 ---Was SCO Linux actully that bad? I used Caldera Linux for years, and was more or less satisfied.
I never tried SCO Linux because I didn't feel the need to update when Caldera changed their name to SCO and released a new version, and then Darl turned them into scum.

"SCO" didn't care about Linux like "Caldera" did. I think they even rebuilt a lot of it for the name change.

Funny website though :D It's a pitty it hasn't been updated since 2000 :(

one thing i think windows really sucks ass at is that it comes with very little usable applications software. most (all popular) *ix distros come with a huge selection of ready-configured apps, the likes of which you'd pay hundreds for and spend days installing under windows. i mean just check out your post above, clearly windows doesn't even come with a spellchecker! :-D ;-)

LOL true!
I normally type all my posts into OpenOffice Writer and spell check them before hand but I obviously didn't bother on that occasion. Anyway Calum the spellchecker you use can

Knoppix can run KDE on 88MB of RAM without a swap file and Fedora/Mandrake/Linspire all need at least 256MB with a 512MB swap file and even then the performance is questionable. I just don't get it Knoppix detects all of my devices ok (except for my winmodem) and it auto mounts CDs and my digital camera and does all the stuff all the bloatware distros do yet requiring a fraction of the resources.
