AKA setting aside a day to sit down and just do it. But this read makes me feel a little more confident that switching to Linux is a good idea.<br /><br />But like baphia said, I play a lot of computer games, like SC2.

A lot of those people are actually the people who don't know much about it. <br /><br />There isn't really an issue anymore with configuring linux if you're using one of the more user friendly distros. Most computer users would get by fine on linux. <br /><br />Most people only use an office suite, an IM program, and a web browser anyway. And Linux has a good selection of those.Wizard of LOLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14521577295858381791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836558590791703472.post-13023999675583437742010-10-06T09:28:19.016-07:002010-10-06T09:28:19.016-07:00I always wanted to become a Linux user, but I'...I always wanted to become a Linux user, but I'm also a gamer and I can't quit gaming.baphiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06968305900963767499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836558590791703472.post-19177356717834502112010-10-06T06:48:41.096-07:002010-10-06T06:48:41.096-07:00Stallman copypasta is right tho.

What ...I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an <br />operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components <br />comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.<br /><br />Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is <br />often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.<br /><br />There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's <br />resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete <br />operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called <br />"Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836558590791703472.post-24946345964332999532010-10-06T02:37:46.472-07:002010-10-06T02:37:46.472-07:00I've always thought about switching over to an...I've always thought about switching over to and learning Linux.<br />Thx for the tips.Telia Tulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01567257238861645997noreply@blogger.com
