Windows come with its very own virus scanner, it gets rid of all viruses on your windows partition.
The very usefull tool is called fdisk.
Having got that out of the way, fedora 9 is out in a few days!!! Looks to be a very interesting release with kde4 and ext4 support.
Hopefully the nvidia driver/xorg/kernel incompatability will be sorted before then, i cant stand the nv driver, with its max resolution of 800x600.
Anyway thats my $0.02 ...
I would like to start a debate, Open-Source or Closed-Source? I think you can guess which i prefere.
- no cost(money)
- Faster development
- More technologicaly advanced software!!! (Programmers free to do what there bosses wont let them do at work, ie use less stable technologies, experiment (which is understandable))
- Community spirit!
Anyone agree or disagree? (please state why and in what conditions, not just "i like this or that!")
P.s. i do use windows as well, i just dont like it!!!
Linux is far easier for development IMHO, all the tools are built in. Where as the microsoft sponsered development tools such as visual studio is highly overpriced(unless the have released it free now, i havent checked resently? I doubt it though LOL)
