| ____________________________ [Mar 2,2010 8:47pm - htr ""] Well we both have different wants and needs. For example, I think it's easier to do color separations in GIMP than in photoshop for screen printing, layouts, etc, but I'm not a photo/camera guy. Ardour is would be preferable over audacity and has good support for a lot of fire-wire devices. Like I said Linux dose not cover everything out there in the specialized software world, but for the average user who just wants to get online, burn CDs, email, do office stuff, and be entertained, I don't see a reason to spend $$$ on Windows or a Mac unless you have to. And for anyone who wants to try Linux, most of the ISO's have a live CD feature where you can try Linux without installing to your hard drive. It's a pretty groovy feature. |

I also disagree with your statement. even with the latest ubuntu, something is always not right with the hardware support. then you go and get a new webcam and there a no drivers available. |
