HAHA My sister is 13, She is running Kubuntu, and already knows PERL. During her winter break she is going to be learning HTML, CSS, and other web Dev things.
Must either A. Not want to take the time to learn it or B. Is a Microsoft leg humper Seriously i run Fedora on my laptop and its so much better than Windows more stable more secure and you can do so much more not to mention it and all its programs are free
linux is a great OS, just a shame that it’s not as accepted commercially. It would be nice to see photoshop and other high end applications written specifically for it.
and because of that, it makes the OS sort of difficult to learn :\
and totally open. You could rewrite the entire OS to your own liking if you wanted… you don’t have to use gnome either. I do agree though, it’s not as user friendly (can you imagine your grandmother hacking away in the console lol?) but support is actually pretty decent. If you ever have a problem, a simple google search will more than likely find the answer
Apache servers are the only plus side to Linux. The whole purpose of the GUI was to steer away from Command Line…yet linux still bases it’s operation around this. I understand that Linux is open source, but I’m guessing changing the kernal and so forth is not something that can be done in a couple minutes. By support I meant more along the lines of Live Help. Granted the windows knowledge center/database or w/e it’s called is insanely shitty, but there is more support via companies/phone lines/internet forums/so on for windows.
Overall I guess I hate Linux as a client. Especially installing it.
nothing wrong with gimp, but put it head to head with a professional suite like Photoshop and the difference pretty clear, especially 3rd party plugins and shit. People do good work with it though
