Watch this ... Forget VISTA

[wossname]

Having said that tho, I still agree with Wossy.....anybody using anything other than terminal mode *nix is a poor excuse for a human being and should be shot on sight.

Death's too good for them.

Also anyone caught using emacs or joe should be burned as a witch. gedit is acceptable...just.

wossy, when did you come out of cleveland mental institution?

Give me one reason why Gedit is better than Emacs. Except for a n00b?

[CyberSurfer]

The only acceptable text editor is vi. Or possibly vim, if there is no other alternative. Gvim is unecessarily ornamented.

[NoteMe]

I have nothing against vi, nor vim users. But I can't say that I understand why the look down at Emacs users. They are both perfectly good editors. wØØsy is a chav...

[CyberSurfer]

Ach, emacs is OK but there's nothing worse than going to a strange *nix system and finding that your fave text editor isn't installed. Vi is always guaranteed to be there, hence it's the one I put the time in to learning

[NoteMe]

I know enough Vi to get around. And if I need to to more then a few lines of editing, it is on MY machine.. And I always have Emacs there..

[CyberSurfer]

We have machines which I'm pretty sure predate computers, let alone emacs so vi is a must

[NoteMe]

You are definitly working the wrong place..

[grilkip]

so you removed your original post, just so that we wouldn't see that you edited?

It's quite simple: Because Emacs != vi(m)..

Cleveland? Never been to that one.

You can't beat a terminal mode linux server installation. Anyone who disagrees is a communist.

I agree, but can I still be a communist?

[litlewiki]

No it isn't. [rant ommitted for the sake of sanity]

You misquoted me woss.I wasn't making fun of you

[timeshifter]

Yep, I'm back. Be honest. Did you even notice I was gone?

Nope.

[litlewiki]

Why do I bother?

True

Buy a Mac ******s.

The preview impressed me, so I thought to try it myself.

I download the Kororaa Live CD from here:
http://tr.searching.com/view.php?id=406743
Burned the ISO, booted the computer with it, started to boot from CD, but it was not what I expected.

The boot screen is supposed to look like this:

Screen shot from here: http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/5476

But what I got was just text like in DOS, that was not aligned, it was all over the screen, and on top of the screen I got some weird characters flashing in green and red.
After that the screen went in power save mode, and that's it, the CD stopped reading, and I waited, and waited, but nothing... so I gave up, reset the computer, and booted back from hard drive...

PS, my computer specs:
P4 3.2 GHz dual core
2 GByte RAM
3 Hard Drives totaling 630GBytes (one of them empty)

If MAC decides they will sell their OS to run on PCs, I would probably run that too. I wouldn't buy a mac just to do it though.

There is a PC version of Mac OS X, named Darwin. It is not for sale, it's opensource. Visit www.opensource.apple.com.

I have a SuSE but I don't know those features (I'm really new in Linux and also Mac). I'm using M$ products for more than 10 years (from MSDos, Win95 to WinXP). I found out that there are many companies and some internet cafe that are using Linux here in our country (because it is free) that is why I'm studying Linux(SuSE 10.0) and also Mac OS X(Darwin).

How to activate those features? My SuSE 10.0 and Mac OS X are both running under VMWare 1.0.

[Arrow_Raider]

Darwin isn't mac os x; Darwin is the core of mac os x. Darwin its self doesn't come with any GUI, though you can download KDE for it I believe.

[eSPiYa]

Yeah, I'm sorry for my mistakes. But I am using the Darwin's Kernel for OSX86.
It is legal.
