Linux is stable as a rock.  X, not so much.

that sounds like maverick talk.

I'm looking up unique OS's (What's the correct plural for that?).
Here's an interesting one: http://www.skyos.org/

Another good one: http://www.menuetos.net/

I think I've heard of SkyOS before, but MenuetOS is news to me.

I'm pretty much of the opinion that X is a lumbering dinosaur and it's nice to see people working on alternatives.

I would be extremely interested in SkyOS if the dick didn't charge 30 euros to become a member who is able to download it.

The cross bar thing sounds cool though, but with features like that I can't help but wonder how bloated OS will become.



Edit: On a unrelated note, is there a voice activated OS yet? One where I could just say "Open Firefox" and it would pop-up? Because that would be awesome.

Windows Vista.

I don't believe it! 

[Dooly]

I've seen old black-and-white-screen Macintoshes that had software that did that.

  But I want it on Linux.

Habeeb it.

How well does it work?  My voice dial doesn't know the difference between Dad and Ben.

[Brentai]

Surprisingly well, but I don't use it that often.

Niku:

but does it not recognize "Undo"?  Because "Undo" would have been one of the first things I tried if it were me, instead of "delete long string of text eat long street of Texas".

Grr... God damn, why does Damn Small Linux have to be so stupid? I can't get my WG111v3 Netgear usb  receiver work at all on this damn thing...

[Air]

Does anyone know how I can install ROX-Filler without an internet connection? The downloads at their site are all download the downloader kinda shit. Anyway, I'm trying to fix up my DSL CD so it's a bit more workable, and I can't get it to see my wireless, so I can't get online to download the files when on DSL.

Currently trying Kubuntu since I'm sick of not having a good web browser and having to reboot every 3 hours from memory leaks in Puppy.
I was impressed that it was able to use my wireless usb without dnis (or whatever that's called). Also, so far I am really liking Konqueror.  spellcheck.

Fuck Kubuntu! My hand is bleeding!
