RE: [PLUG] My "hopefully" last comments on the Linux Desktop thread.
|
I own it. I bought Xandros when it was 1.0. It is a wonderful desktop but
I still need to run certain windows programs and Xandros is not on the
approved list to run Vmware. I have 2.5 Business Desktop.
Actually Xandros is free if you don't want Samba and Crossover
