Hola amig@s, hacia tiempo que no subia nada, he estado algo desconectado, bueno hoy subo mi escritorio de linux, ambientado en la musica. Se que linux es menos popular por aqui, animo a probarlo a todos usuarios de windows, en rendimiento es tremendo, os sorprendera gratamente, sobre todo a los usuarios de laptops y netbooks. Saludos (:

I've recently forayed back into Linux distributions with an eye to abandoning windows forever. i think the oncoming Longhorn from microsloth is going to be little more than windows xp service pack 3, and it'll have to pay for the privilege.

So I downloaded five or six Linux live cds, burned them, and ran each off the cd to see if they worked on any of my comps. some did ok, some refused to boot, and one stood out as the easiest to use and most compatible with my hardware.

The beauty of live cds is that you can run Linux without having to install a thing. for permanent install i chose Ubuntu Linux and slapped it onto an ancient gateway p2-333mhz. It booted first time and ran perfectly.

After mucking with it for a day or two to try and learn how to customize it to my liking, I went ahead and installed it on this comp in a dual boot configuration. There were a few minor issues easily solved through the miracle of google, and now it runs.

Fast.

Really fast, and my machine is not slow.

While it is true that Linux is a different environment than windows, and a n00b requires some training and hand holding, two things became abundantly clear: there is an enormous user community that is mostly patient with n00bs; and the learning curve is not *that* steep. Comparatively speaking, while Linux does require a bit of bravery in the beginning using terminal windows and praying you don't hose the install, windows, while appearing simple out of the box, is just as perplexing to a true computer newbie as is Linux.

I've fixed enough windows problems to know that things that seem simple to me aren't to users who want to "turn it on and have it work". Trouble with that attitude is that computers, and especially windows, don't work that way. An entire group of my friends have migrated to Macs, because, as one who writes for his living said, "they just work."

Linux isn't foolproof, but the desktop versions have gotten so much better than they were when i first tried them out in 1999. And, once the initial learning curve is mastered (akin to reading the manual for your windows comp gathering dust in the bottom of a closet somewhere) it is stable and easy to use to do the things most users want to do.

And it's free. :)

Linux (well Unix really) architecture as I think of it.

Recently I have moved to Ubuntu Linux. This is so good, much better than windows XP, very user friendly, supports almost any hardware straight out of box. We can run windows specific programs also using a special software called Wine. I never thought the transition from windows to Linux is such easy. What a great work by open source community.

Ask me for any information, I am glad if any one what to use Ubuntu. I will always extend my help.
