re: Need a Disk Saturday, August 6, 2005 at 3:32 am Windows Me Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Alan Masterman (412 messages posted) Yes, Mike, if you have to buy new go for the XP Home... you can always configure it to the Classic Windows look if you find the XP interface offensive (as I do). Linux is an acquired taste - anything which erodes MS dominance is a good thing, of course, but if you're conditioned to the MS interface, some of the Linux offerings can be very non-intuitive and, contrary to what you might have been led to believe, they are not universally stable and reliable on every machine. I tried running Lindows on a Compaq Deskpro, and it couldn't be left alone for half an hour without crashing fatally (could it be that we need an Annoyances site for Linux now???!!!)
