I have an old Fujitsu Siemens laptop from 2006 and I have no problems with the Intel hardware inside. I also have Compiz and AWN running on an old nVidia GeForce MX 4 with no issues to. What is the Intel hardware inside your Dell?<br><br>I hope to one day purchase an Apple Mac, I kinda like the idea of the Mini or maybe the entry level MacBook, but I agree with Mr Shuttleworth that the Linux community should be emulating Apple's approach rather than Redmond's.AmblestonDackWed, 30 Jul 2008 07:46:05 -0000http://sizlopedia.disqus.com/10_reasons_why_linux_ubuntu_is_better_than_windows/#comment-13940846While Windows is not going anywhere for the moment, I agree with a lot of comments here about open source and the way it will play a bigger part in our futures. I have been using Ubuntu since its early days as my main distro and all I can say is that it keeps getting better. As for Brainstorm, well that is one example of how open source works, if you have an idea you just submit it, can you imagine MS with this kind of input...<br><br><br>Na, me neither, lol.<br><br>If you have a programming bent, then you can download the source code, modify or add bits and then submit it back (under the rules of the GPL (I think)). Again, can you imagine if you were allowed to modify or improve Windows...<br><br><br>Sorry, hurt my self laughing too much with that one ;)AmblestonDackSat, 29 Mar 2008 16:12:09 -0000
