Been using Windows for 6 years and the best user-friendly I've known. But thanks to the bug,spyware,weekly windows update for diverting me to LINUX. Finally I know how to use make install.

Here's a little something for the blind illiterate person.

Linux v Linux is diff from which OS do you choose

this poll had made up with some others. i need resources that are more accurate. not increasing my post

need a good resource? try http://www.distrowatch.com . polls with a small population such as the one here have too few samples to be useful.

thank you, you are such a gentle man, not like someone... harsh people will never gain respect

but then i knew that site already, i just need a poll to ask some LINUX users only

thanks once again.

solaris, how come not many ppl choose tis ar? it has super duper tight security (the kerberos system) that if u wanna shut down the system, it ask for NINE different confirmation whether u really wanna shut down the system. let alone all file execution and stuff... (yes i know, u need SPARC cpu to run it, but heck, my fren running solaris on his amd.)

Have you tried Solaris 10?
Solaris can support both SPARC and x86 platform, dear..

Cheers!

i wonder solaris 10 can run on the p4 1.6 system? as i c on the site .. it only tell us on Xeon ...

Yes, you can install Solaris 10 on a P4. I've done it before. It supports SATA as well, in case anyone's wondering.

anyone using licensed solaris? how much u bought it? around >15k ?

Solaris 8 & 9 license quite affordable. CD costs around RM400, IIRC.

no worries. badawi_rocks, nexus-, psylocke, and i make up the league of extraordinary gentlemen of the forum

i would say it's more of a good cop, bad cop situation. the bad cop antagonizes the offender of his mistakes. he'll get spanked for it so next time, he'll piss in his pants if he ever thinks about it. the good cop comes in all gentlemanly/womanly, gives a soft kiss on the cheek, you'll stay here be a good boy/girl ok?

of course the good cop has to be of the opposite sex.

i can't decide.

for my work and all, WinXP is no doubt the best cos i need it to do my work. games as well.

but in my mind, i always favour the linux distros more than Windows.

solaris 10 can dl free from sun system web site. i just got he dvd and cd version of solaris 10. if i got chance to install it this few weeks then i will share more with u guys.

i like BSD system for their simplicity and stability and security. i really encourage linux user to try on any bsd system, u will find out that it is actually much easier for newbie. just my opinion:P
