[QUOTE="Ithrynor, post: 211307, member: 12352"] Linux just isn't for everybody. I think I prefer it the most from a user's standpoint (I mean, I can turn into anything I want). But then, I like using UNIX terminals and writing settings using Python. :-D For for getting actual work done, aside from specific things, I'm always in some other OS. The unfortunate thing is the lack of killer apps. Photoshop? Time to grab Windows/MacOS. Modelling? I'd rather have a hot poker in the eye than be forced to use Blender. I do like the trend of some dev studios releasing games for Linux. If... only the games were worth playing. (That's for another topic!!) That said, it does really shine for specific jobs. Like... a movie theater. Or, a computer that is -just- for surfing the web. A print server. If you have little computers for one job only, it's the best way to go. For general use, I think people are better off elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
