If anybody's interested on what my Linux gaming computer looks like. Screenies:



http://img50.echo.cx/img50/3590/snapshot26mn.png
Me about to play CS (Windowed only for the screenshot), while listening to streaming music.

DLing music, watching the Chapelle Show (streaming), file-sharing. At the top-right you'll notice 'Superkaramba', which shows my computer temperature, current speed, CPU usage, netowkring, and multimedia buttons right on my wallpaper.

Here, I've emulated Windows using WINE to run IE6, the most exclusive of WIndows programs. You might be asking: "IE6 is horrible, and can cause spyware". Such vulnerabilities don't realy work on Linux, since it doesn't have permissions to modify/remove any files (plus if it does, it'll only be contined in my fake Windows C: folder). The benefits of IE6 under Linux is that some plug-ins haven't been ported to Linux (ie Shockwave, Quicktime), if I ever run into a site that needs such, I just run IE6.

Here, I'm running M$ Windows XP Pro in a window through Linux using VMWare. I don't really have a purpose for it yet.. it's just for experimental purposes for now.







Post yer own screenies!

Lol, it's named "Wine Is Not an Emultor", but it pretty much is o.o.

why use linux if you're just going to emulate windows? Cool

Nonono. See, amongst the ignorant Winblows users, a lot of them have given Linux a notorious reputation for being incompatible. Well, even if Linux doesn't have a native Linux version of whatever it is you want, you can always resort to what I had screenied.

Get'it?

Yes. Kubuntu is, IMO, the best Linux distrobution.

Salvia is okay, ever tried the salvia extracts?

I found my tolerance for the leaves (smoking, never tried chewing) to go up verrry quick.



Your screenies don't look too bad. At a a time I had RedHat installed on a box, it was fun to play around with occasionally. Maybe I overlooked, but what version of linux are you running?

Of course I smoke the extracts, I make my own (since i have a salvia plant).

Kubuntu, I use (K)ubuntu. Best Linux distro out there, IMO (If you use gnome - Ubuntu. If KDE - Kubuntu)
