Post your Linux/Unix/Mac desktops :D

This is so much better than the boring "Post your Windows desktop"

SuSE 10.0 86_64

Would you recommend Linux over Windows XP?

-Thrilla- · Sep 27, 2006

I ditched Windows completely a bit under a month ago, and I have yet needed/wanted Windows for anything besides CS Source, but I have UT2004 on SuSE

Gotta say Linux is powerful and open, there're so much stuff you can do. But I'm still too noob to use FreeBSD, I want unix hahaha.

Azn Tr14dZ · Sep 27, 2006

Wait, you can't use CS:S on Linux? That's what I mainly play....aww damn.

-Thrilla- · Sep 27, 2006

I know you can use wine but I messed wine up lol, so no wine for me right now.

If you can handle Linux, you can handle ANY UNIX (meaning doing shellscripts & commandline stuff really)...

This is speaking from personal experience!

(UNIX: That is where I started in academia & on various jobs in the 1980's, years/decades ago (along w/ VMS & other IBM midranges OS' (awesome stuff, best commandline system I have EVER seen in fact on OS400))).

I wouldn't call myself a "master of UNIX" but, it's NOT that 'radically different' from Linux imo @ least.

Personally? I think Linux is BETTER actually (in some ways, others, not)!

Solaris x86: IIRC, there ARE completely FREE builds of it available for a PC, see here:

It says that I have to have "Some Linux Knowledge"...which I don't so I guess no Linux for me.

It looks better than XP though...

Running FreeBSD 6.1..

Is cedega free? I screwed up wine lol, but still want css and defcon

zekrahminator · Sep 30, 2006

From what I heard Cedega ain't free, but it is one of the best Windows emulators out there.

Migons · Oct 1, 2006

There are free CVS versions of Cedega available for free, but they might not work as well as the commercial version. CVS Cedega page can be found here: http://transgaming.org/
