Since he was the original engineer, creating the labyrinth for the Minotaur then when Minos locked him up in a tower, fabricating a pair of wings for him and his son Icarus to fly out of it with I’m of the opinion he would use a Unix-like system. So, do you think it would be Linux, FreeBSD or Mac OS X? I know if I asked this in software the bias would be towards Linux with a few Windows Chauvinists who never peer under the hood of their machines anyhow. What do you think?

I’m strong in Sun UNIX and don’t want to try a bunch of Linux distro’s to find the best one to use, so I am hoping someone on here has tried some already for setting up a dial-in ppp connection. I see a lot of people saying ubuntu, but I also hear that debian or FreeBSD is better. Has anyone set up a ppp server with Linux successfully? Thanks !

Ok, i’ve used linux (ubuntu), nad other unix like os’s such as freeBSD and Mac OS X. well anyways i was interested in switching to linux but i have a few questions first: 1. i’m stuck between the xfce or KDE interface which is better, 2: can are linux apps universal or will they only run in one interface, and 3. how well does gaming on wine work, and is there anything i can do to make it better? I’m an A+ certified IT technician, so i’m pretty tech savy, i’m just new to the linux os
