Microsoft had released Windows XP Pro x64 as a free upgrade from 32-bit pro!!!
And for those who have a computer compatable with 64-bit windows... here ya go! http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/64bi ... trial.mspx
It works great!
Another thing I'd like to add to my previous message...I heard "Wine" doesn't work too well from a VERY reliable source.Serpanator wrote:Two operating systems I've used so far are Linux Ubuntu, and Windows (95,98,2000,XP). I'll agree with the fact that Windows is a glitchy OS. There hasn't been one time I've booted XP up and NOT had a problem with something. Linux is good because practically everything is free. Free games, free programs, etc. The negative thing about Linux though, is that a lot of stuff that is out for Windows isn't out for the Linux OS, such as WMV codecs/decoders and stuff like that. It's just annoying when you finally download a high-quality video after 3 days of waiting, and you discovor that you can't play it. I hadn't heard of "Wine" up till today, so my views of Linux and Windows have changed a bit. However, I have a question about "Wine". I might have heard about a program that converts Windows .exe's to Linux .bin file and such...is this program,"Wine", it (I can't view it on my school laptop)? Also, does it have the capability to play things off of a play disc (even though that's pretty unimportant considering you can just get a no-cd patch for it)?
And I've seen this written a lot w/ some fanarts, 'specially Naruto. Just curious as to what is means.You're correct. Windows does eat up your system resources savagely. However, the fact of the matter is that nobody is really going to care or change their OS because of this topic. This is because most people probably wouldn't know how to use Linux. I've had the OS for nearly half a year, and I still don't quite have a full grasp on things, such as terminal commands and how to install certain programs. Also, from what I can tell, a good portion of people in today's world don't understand a thing about computers, so they probably wouldn't know how to install a new OS properly or anything; much less use Linux. However, these are meerely results of observations I've made over time while living in my community. It may be different in your cases. I wouldn't know. But I will agree on two things. One; Linux is a great operating system. And two; Windows is a glitchy OS.Haseo:terrorofdeath wrote:I have used WINE with knoppix and it worked very well. I was able to get my audio player from Windows running. What you heard was probably because it is still in the beta phase and they don't have all of the windows commands recorded yet so some Windows programs don't work too well. I have installed Ubuntu Linux and it reduced my lag from ten minutes to one second. You don't realize how much Windows is causing your PC to lag until you remove it.Serpanator wrote:Another thing I'd like to add to my previous message...I heard "Wine" doesn't work too well from a VERY reliable source.Serpanator wrote:Two operating systems I've used so far are Linux Ubuntu, and Windows (95,98,2000,XP).

Yes, more and more experienced people probably are. But for those who don't know jack squat, they'll stick with Windows cause its what they know. I'm sure even you would agree with me on that.Haseo:terrorofdeath wrote:More and more people are currently abandoning Windows and switching to Linux and Macintosh. Windows is shitty. That I can say. Seriously, it took me twenty five minutes to install Linux while it took me SEVEN HOURS to install that dogshit "upgrade" if you can call it that called SP2. I have been writing simple trojans lately to test the security of Linux and the results is that they have yet to do anything.
