come again.. Vista what???
Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007i used to be a windows-only pc user for years, until i met Fedora few months back. my first impression was "so, this is the customizable Linux? cool.. let’s give it a try"…
oh yeah, still couldn’t live without windows, i used dual-boot, one Windows XP+one Fedora core 5. then i added one more, Fedora Core 6, which makes one windows and two linuxs (or is it linuces as in vertices? :p)
so my notebook’s harddrive would be something like this:
1 LVM - Windows
1 LVM - Fedora Core 5 2.6.15 + 2.6.16 (two kernels in one)
1 LVM - Fedora Core 6
1 vfat/fat32 share partition
now as i got a new desktop PC (came with Windows XP), i decided to install Linux on it, to make it dual-boot. then i got the Fedora 7 installer DVD from a colleague. guess what? that distro rocks!!!
i bet everyone already heard all these talks about how cool n pretty Windows Vista is, but let me put it to you in this way. Fedora 7 can put Vista into the deepest shame possible. imagine something prettier than Vista, highly customizable… you can put changes into minor details, very stable, not a resources-hogging OS, comes with most advanced technical capabilities (it has mobile IPv6!! how’s that for a surprise???) and etc..etc..etc..
and PLUS IT’S FREE!!! by FREE i really mean both ‘FREE’s in software term. 1) FREE = you don’t have to pay for it. 2) FREE = full open source.
okay, i might sound too excited about this Fedora 7 which simply means i sound stupid. yeah, whatever!! but now my new desktop has 4 OS on it, and none of them is Windows. and it works fine…
and the next time i format my notebook harddisk, i’m not sure Windows will still be on it…
