I agree with you now: it's a computer. The operating system you > use should be the one which properly supports the hardware you > purchased. For a lot of hardware, that will be Windows or MacOS. > Sometimes, Linux does a better job on that hardware, but that is rare. That is how I take it, It's a computer. But I mostly typed that cause Joel wrote It's a new era ;) I do like Linux, but I've yet to put it on something good, like the Alienware I have. When that gets over-the-hill and I replace it with a new one (~2-3yrs), I'll put Linux on it and maybe it will run great. I'm hesitant now because of fan control, Alienwares can run hot, and I've read stories about fans pulsing on/off then not working under Linux. Right now I have the ability to set them to run at %'s of 100 and per program/game settings And I can pick intel graphics or nvidia graphics with the click of a button. -- End Transmission
