Very good November 10, 2005 Linux Man 3 out of 6 found this review helpful
Red Hat Linux 9 is a very good distribution, but cannot come close to SUSE for the ease of use and functionality that is built in. For a cheaper edition, try linux cds
You get what you pay for October 16, 2005 Jeffrey D. Emmert (Huron, SD) 2 out of 8 found this review helpful
If you're a Unix/Linux network engineer, you won't have as much trouble using this software. Otherwise, forget about it. It doesn't install by itself the way Windows does and you have to create your own boot diskette using DOS. Once installed, the OS won't quite recognize your system, its monitor or your peripherals. I bought it from a reseller (Book Expert) for its novelty value on a second HD but quickly discovered how kludgy it was and reformatted it as a Windows data drive. If you buy from a reseller, you won't get the original packaging. Instead, you'll find 3 or 4 homemade CDRs from a free download. Get XP Pro or wait for Vista, instead.
Bad CDs February 22, 2005 Michael Gibson (Wilmington, DE USA) 2 out of 11 found this review helpful
The set of 4 CDs had one bad one which caused the install not to work.
Easy ha... September 22, 2004 Ghost (U.P., Michigan) 8 out of 14 found this review helpful
Linux isn't for your average user. Windos is made easy for those people that don't have the vast knowledge to use linux. It's features are greater than windows, the main point is Open Source Code. Windows does most of our actions for us. Linux its all manual, even sometimes the installation. Windows doesn't want you to change the source, or copy it. Linux was built by the programmers for the programmers. Getting things to work yes it does take some work. Linux isn't windows everythign isn't supported. You have to troubleshoot your own probelms on linux. If you need help for using it buy a book or go on some forms and ask some questions.
Not very compatible... June 13, 2004 Diego Alfaro Bergueiro (San Jose, Costa Rica) 11 out of 16 found this review helpful
I just couldn't install it... apparently, even though my monitor is brand new, it's just not supported by the installation process. Instead of using this one, I had to turn to Mandrake, which hasn't given me any kind of trouble (I'm actually using it right now).
