What does your desktop look like?

Mine's actually a dead giveaway too. :) To be honest, though, I don't ever use it. Probably means I should get it off my desktop, but I've been lazy. :rolleyes:

Here's my other desktop -- the Dell. Hardly use it anymore.

Paul, as you can tell, I've got my own private AMD/Intel war going on right here! AMD is definitely winning... :p
 
lappy check out linux.com or bsd.org , awesome operating systems. Plus its very usefull to learn how to use.

Yea, paul if linux had the software support win did I could get rid of my win emu.
 
Yea I saw that before looks awesome, I gotta go to best buy this weekend and get me a new vid card. Probally gonna get a geforce 4 128mb for now.
 
I have a dual boot setup with SuSe Linux and Win 2000 pro, most of the time I am in windows because of software, but Linux is sure fun to tweak:)
 
There is no question is to which os is better. I just wish nix oses would get the software win does .
 
I should mention that, on my Athlon home built number, I've got four partitions: for Win98 SE, Win2K, and WinXP. I've yet to do it, but I'm going to install Solaris 8.0 on the last partition. I would have gone with Linux, but Unix is widely used in networking and I want to learn it first. (Yes, I know they're similar.)
 
openbsd is the most secure os definately no contest. I like Freebsd though just more for me, I use to be really into slackware and debian. I still have slack on my system . If you dont have much resources I think netbsd is the best IMO. I only have 2 pet peavs redhat and mandrake hat them both.

What software are you talking about?
 
True but there are a few games I am into that they dont have a linux version for. Im not argueing with you I would be the first one to tell you that nix is way better then mac or win. I just think it could be alot better if it had the user base win did.

playing online games like those are very anoying for me, they dont offer broadband in my area. Do you know how laggy a dialup gets. I need to move out of hickville man I hate virginia especiallly this county.
 
I can give you a few examples. I would like to see a linux version of nero for one.
 
Nero Burning Rom?

I have no problem burning cds of any kind with GCombust.
 
Yea thats true but nero has the best software when it comes to cd burning, I have no problems burning cds on nix but I would much rather use nero if I could.

Also about the the gameing linux was made to be a server environment not a gameing environment. You suffer fps loss,its designed for other things, such as network handling, and lots more. I just prefer to play games on win JMO.

Except device support that windows has thats the only problems I have with nix. I would still use it over win and mac any day.

Sorry for takeing so long to respond had to grab something at the store.
 
Here's a treat [distraction] at my office. I have the cable tv input in my AV Power Mac so I can watch tv while working in other programs.

Oh, that's "****s", my shared folder. I don't usually save stuff to my desktop, but set up temporary desktop folders on each of my computers (the one on the Athlon is called "turds") to practice sharing files after I built my network. I forget, but I think I may have...cleaned up "turds". :eek:
