Sup, In reference to the post: UNIX > DOS and Linux > Windows, right? What flavor of Unix/Linux are ppl running. I have a FreeBSD Nat Box, for sharing the house internet connection, and a XP box for gaming. In hte past I have run RedHat, Suse, and when I was 12 I ran a very early version of Slackware. I am mainly interested in the flavors ppl are gaming on. _______________ Silent Bob (Kevin Smith): You know, there's a million fine looking women in the world, dude.

I've used Mandrake, Red Hat, Suse, Slackware and Gentoo. All I have to say is Gentoo > all flavors of Linux.  _______________ When a Man lies he murder's some part of the world.

FreeBSD only.  If I need a workstation I'll use RedHat if I don't care or Gentoo if I feel like doing it right. _______________ My car is made of Nerf. |

Sup, So are you guys paying for your mandrake distros? Or are they also available via ftp, like almost all other *nix operating systems. _______________ Silent Bob (Kevin Smith): You know, there's a million fine looking women in the world, dude.

I've tried Mandrake, Suse, Debian, Slackware, FreeBSD, Red Hat, Yopper, Morphix, and Knoppix. And I have to say Mandrake takes the cake for ease of installation. I'm currently using Mandrake 9.1 (don't really like 9.2). I'm in the process installing Gentoo though, (takes a while if you go for tarball#1 all that compiling. SWEET!) can't wait to see how fast it goes if everything's compiled. _______________ Windows95: <win-doz-nin-te-fiv> n. 32 bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16 bit patch to an 8 bit operating system originally coded for a 4 bit microprocessor, written by a 2 bit company, that can't stand 1 bit of competition.

Redhat But since it has stopped being supported, I will either go to Fedora or Debian or Gentoo or Slackware or everything of the above (and install them on a new HD  )Linux 0wnZ EDIT: *nix 0wnZ _______________ Your friends of today, are your enemies of tomorrow.
