Switching to Linux pro/con
 

I am thinking about switching to Linux. I heard that its much easier to use than before. but I have a few questions first.

can I use some type of HTML editor with linux (frontpage or dreamweaver)?
will most windows games work with linux.
Will my DVD burner work in linux so i can burn games.
Will I need a 2nd harddrive or can I just partition mine. If so how many GIGS should I partition it for. Also if I want to remove linux in the future, is it possible just to erase the new partition.

say goodbye to videogames if you switch your system to linux.

just get a mac instead

Well if wouldnt be a problem just restarting the comp and loading windows instead. What are the other cons

see sig...

WTF... I didn't realize the thread was titled... "PLEASE COME IN AND POST SOMTHING STUPID" he must have edited it.That applies to you too.... that piece of trash was designed off money stolen from MP3.COM artists.

If you are completely unfamiliar with Linux I think Mac is the best route to go. You can get most of your development software supported there as well and a few games. You can also be more sure that your DVD will play and so forth.

Havent seen anyone use Lindows so I can't say much about that.

Plus, Mac's are purdy. :thumbsup

umm so whats wrong with Lindows exactly

I think you'd be better off with a Mac.
