Win2K might be good.
But, too expensive to buy another sotware tools that I need to do programming.
Visual Studio? CF Studio?
Well, I got only My 3 disk Mandrake, and support from a very active linux
community all over the world (nothing's is free from M$).
I got all tools to do web programming. Since I only use postgres, mysql and
oracle, everything is all there. BlueFish, phpmyadmin, mysq-navigator,
phppgadmin, phporadmin and many oracle tools (not to mention from oracle
itself).
Livin' in Linux is getting much easier nowadays, no need to scandisk, defrag
(thx to reiserfs and ext3), restart, reinstall (when we got win crashed), and
the GUI is not bad at all. Updating software is much easier to do (thx to
debian`s apt-get, mandrake`s cooker, freshmeat and many more)
Most of them (I use only GPL software in my Mandrake), are all free,
everything u got from community, and u only need to do good to help
community, not like, Billy that hate linux coz it stole some from his wallet.
I use Debian and Mandrake, both are making me much aware now about freedom, :)
I leave my Win to play games and do the design, but soon . there would be
available in linux. How soon? We can start from now, to make it available.
That's the differences between open-source community and the close one.
-m-
ps: no more worm, and anti-virus alert if we close all hole, patching,
udpating kernel, filtering any package we send and receive from the world to
our PC. How bout win? gosh, Billy ask to much.
