"Dear me. Just because I recently talked about Windows XP SP3's virtues and vices, some people seem to think I've turned away from my beloved Linux systems. Nope, I'm still a rock-solid Linux desktop user.
Can Linux be cracked? Sure, any system can be cracked. That's not the question. The question is: Which system is fundamentally more secure and easier to keep secure?" The winning answer by a mile is Linux, and that's why I'm sticking with it for my primary desktop."
"Digital board games can be tons of fun, especially when they're cooperative. That's what's in store for Beacon Patrol from Assemble Entertainment. Based on the real-life board game by Torben Ratzlaff, Beacon Patrol has players work together to explore a map and create a network of coastal paths, all by placing tiles. It's a lot like Carcassonne and Kingdomino, but set on the high seas. The upcoming Steam version will support 4-player local co-op, and there's a single-player demo right now," says Co-Optimus.
Thanks to Call of Duty HQ, the early weapons list for Black Ops 7 has been unearthed, and it gives further evidence of wallruning returning.
A hands-on look at this upcoming acrobatic third-person sci-fi shooter.
Linux is that good ? I mean, i know it has some of the best applications out of all the OS's but I had no idea it was the best out of the bunch.
And it gets better constantly.
Linux is certainly rock solid as a webserver, but not so when it comes to graphical applications. It also has extremely high learning curve is highly unintuitive (for people brought up on Windows i.e. the rest of the world).
I was able to setup a webserver with IIS in 30 minutes without knowing anything about Windows Server 2003, but it took me 1-2 days to figure out Apache configuration files with Linux... I'm not even confident it is setup properly.
Linux is the best OS. It real time compared to Windows. Also way much harder to crack and it has way better memory management. In other words you can run many videos, play games, listen to music even burn a cd/dvd at the same time. Windows would crash no matter how much memory you install in the systems. This is why Apple uses OSX(Leopard). I am currently studying Operating Systems in my degree and Linux is just amazing. M$ likes to buy other software. Windows CE is probably M$ best OS to date. Anyway i will be creating my own Linux version for the class so wish me luck.
