Should I Switch to Linux? OpenSuSE 10.3
I’ve been a Linux admirer for quite some time now and flirted with many distros in my life. But I never completely switched to Linux as my main Operating System. Why?
Right now all your base are belong to Windows XP:
- Opera passwords/mail/bookmarks/cookies
- Perfect ACPI compatibility with my Laptop
- Yahoo Instant Messaging file transfer (all your messages are belong to Yahoo Messenger too
) - Direct Connect P2P file sharing with StrongDC++ (and many many other good DC clients)
- Small, pretty, out of the box fonts and comfortable interface
- Game compatibility
Anyway, tomorrow OpenSuSE 10.3 comes out and I was thinking this makes a great time to change. We’ll see…
Even though I have been using Linux on my desktop for four years I pretty much agree with your third and fourth points which are pretty strong. Apparently Yahoo! never wanted to develop it’s messenger for Linux any further also I couldn’t get any decent DC client to work on my distro.
