Linux is great for servers, with remote administration like there was no tomorrow :)
But for Desktop use? Ever try mounting samba shares from your linux box? It's time to call in an administrator, and then you end up writing your windows password in /etc/fstab, not excactly funny...
The strict difference between user and root in Linux and NT makes for good servers and nice office machines, but for an end user desktop@home OS, I would say windows 9x, 2000 (possibly) and AOS are more my kind of system. Actually, drop 9x :)
Don't get me wrong, though. I am running Linux on every machine I have, except the A500. Because it is the next best thing all things considered. But I would rather have AOS on all of them ;) |
