Can Linux cure my craving for AmigaDOS?
No version of Linux can be considered as easy to use as AmigaDOS. For basic thingies like word processing and web browsing, Ubuntu is fine. But if you want to play DVD's or MP3's, or have an extraordinary setup (like two monitors, or two sound cards, or something like that) it's gonna be a hell of a fuss if you're new to Linux.
I now got my KUbuntu installation up and running with alot of stuff like gaim (msn alternative) xmms and so. I can virtually do everything I could with Windows (though I still need to install KCDemu - a Linux Daemon Tools equivalent - but it needs a kernal recompilation).
One can 'feel' that Linux is designed for multitasking (wich Windows (XP) isn't). While I listen to Internet radio using my USB soundcard I'm copying backed up stuff on the hd and doing seveveral other stuff - and it happens so without one single hickup; the way I like it 8-)
