The shittyest distro
Calum:
i heard a lot of crap about lindows' shoddy distro, and how the licencing was really prohibitive and the installation and updating were shabby etc, so maybe that one (though i was put off from ever trying it)
the worst one i have ever tried was kmLinux. it is rotten. 100% rubbish in every way. waste 2 CDs and 1300MB of download time if you want to check this, but you're wasting your time.

I'm using NT 5.1 and it doesn't suck half as much as Redhat!
Funny website though :D It's a pitty it hasn't been updated since 2000 :(

I've read the marketing shit and it sounded good then I looked at this screen shot:http://www.linare.com/screen_shots/shutdown.html - doesn't this look a bit too similar to Windows XP, it's just puke green instead of blue!

talk about slow, and stupid, and insecure. a fresh install, and wait a day and you will get about 10 virus' . windows 98 is more secure than this.
the only thing good, is that the person on the computer, its hard for them to do really anything bad with deepfreeze on it if you are restricted account:
and if you arent on the computer (like remotely hacking it) its as easy as stealing candy from a baby.

Windows isn't Linux and I suppose this could have been true for you but I found Win98 far worse than Win2k. Win98 blue screened everyday and Win2k blue sreens about once a month. Win2k is techinically better than Win98 too as Win2K is NT based & Win98 is based on ye old 80s OS known as MS-DOS.

I've been put off trying Linspire too, has anyone here actually tried it?
Does it really suck as much shit as people say it does?

I dislike Vector Linux, Fedora and Linspire.
If a program "maybe" starts up in a minimum of 10 seconds, forget it.

Oh I use Vector Linux when I'm not using Windows and there are things I both like and dislike about it.
I like the way it's easy to both use and install and it's light a weight and bloat free modern distro. But I've found it harder to customise than other distros and it seems a bit cobbled together.
I quite like Vector Linux on the whole, what do you dislike about it?

I dislike the lack of customisation in Vector Linux and that Fedora and Linspire are awfully slow.
