How fast is the internet using linux compared to win vista and win 7?
It’s as fast your connection is. Mine is anyway.
Will linux run mmorpg`s well?
Is this something to do with Gaming? Most games are for PC’s/Microsoft. Though it is possible to play some of them in Linux.
Using Wine: WineHQ - Wine Application Database
But if you are that hooked on Games, you might want to consider a dual boot computer. M$ + Linux
ok. thank for your input. it looks like i will spending alot of time figuring out how to use this os. how to d/l and installing drivers and such.
Most drivers are compiled at install - some things may need attention eg; wireless (maybe) but ask here in the forum, don’t just go downloading stuff, it’s generally not the way it’s done in Linux.
I agree. I have downloaded ubuntu 9 but havent installed it yet. Would you recommend this or something else? Im not using wireless. Computers spects, amd phen 64 quad, 4gb 1066 ram, nividia 9600gt 512mb,2 hds with vista 32 on 1 and vista 64 and win 7 enterprise 64 bit on the other. Anyother downloads i need to make to get up and running?
This is the openSUSE forum, questions about the suitability of Ub* should be posted on their forum.
You can try most distros from their Live CD version - But the SUSE DVD will give you a full blown Linux install. if you have some familiarity with Ub*, then you may want to use Gnome in SUSE too.
