I have been using Linux since 1993. I installed the first version of Slackware on a 16MB 386sx-25. Since then I have been using it almost exclusively on one or more of my PCs. So I consider myself as a bit of an expert. I have been using computers since 1982 mostly PCs, but also VAX mainframes and SPARC systems. Operating systems (and GUIs) I have been using include CP/M, DOS, Windows from Version 2 to XP, Geos, Beos, SCO Unix, Solaris, OS/2 and quite a few Linux Distros.
Is this review of Mandrake 10 or KDE 3.2 and all of it's apps?
I installed Pclinuxos and much of review could be exact copy paste. But anyway This could be written for debian or Suse or Slack.
Ok, I divie in to linux from time to time and I don't get it how come that installation of programs is still so difficult? In pclinuxos you have Synamptec GUI for apt-get, but after I have tried to install Gnome - oh my god, wtf? There was gnome this gnome that, so much gnome everything I got sick. There should be just gnome ... 250 MB; How do I know which gnome package I should install. This bothers me so much. But ok, it's getting better and better...
