Q. is Linux worth getting by the way is it better than Windows?
A. no its not better then windows.... anyone who says it is, is nothing more then some nub linux fanboy who think they are a pro hacker because they use ubuntu...
Windows has its purposes, mac ha its purposes, and linux has its purposes, none are any better then each other.
You use the one that that is best suited for what you are doing.
windows = design (image editing, video editing, music editing, music creation, 3d modeling) and gaming.
mac = design (image editing, video editing, music editing, music creation, 3d modeling) and its more user friendly
linux = well its 100% free, but hard to narrow down on a few things as there are many different distros for many different tasks. but has NO professional software, and NO gaming support.
linux is usually best run through a virtual machine under windows. (that way you can play games use professional software, and use linux when needed)
I am a linux poweruser, and a windows power user, i know both OS VERY well.
I dont even multi boot linux anymore, since most of my work, can be done through windows, and i can always boot linux in a virtual machine. have a few linux distros live cds on dvds and flash drives to be able to boot off if i need to.
(and since im sure some will come here to answer this question)
The nub linux fanboys will try and boast about how great linux is, but linux was NEVER meant for the mainstream of society in computers (ya phones run linux, but its a phone not a computer).
And i always love how they say thing like "linux is faster and doesnt get viruses", as that statement always make me shake my head... as if you really are using linux because of viruses... you are fking retarded anyway.
Also WINE, which is a windows emulator for linux, is NOT EVEN CLOSE to being as good as its talked up to be.... it can only run a handful of games/professional software, and it runs them all poorly at best (lots of problems with features, tools, or crashing). why the hell would you use WINE when you can use windows which has 100% compatibility with windows software...
and virtual machines dont have very good hardware acceleration or opengl support, so running windows in a virtual machine in linux, tho better then wine, is still not very good.
EDIT: what happened to the guy with the answer saying how great linux is and he can play wow PERFECTLY with wine?

"What works
Downloading, installing from web installer, basic gameplay, party, chat, both windowed and fullscreen mode."

how do i install mandriva 2009 linux inside windows so i can dual boot each of them?
Q. I am wanting to start using linux but i dont want to lose vista. How can i dual boot Mandriva. I have tried ubuntu and it does not work so i thought i would try something different.
A. If you want to actually run it inside Vista without affecting the operating system, you need to run a Virtual Program of some kind. I really don't know much about those programs.
If it is a LiveCD don't even load it until you are sure that is what you want. First you need to resize the Vista partition to create enough space to Load Mandriva onto. Once that is done you can install it using the custom install command, not the use existing space or the whole drive. It should set up dual boot automatically.
I'm running PCLinuxOS 2009-1 which is Mandriva based. It has some programs called OnPlay that allows you to Play games with a Linux System and a few other interesting programs.

How to get diner dash to play linux?
Q. Have linux on my computer i want to play diner dash... i have tried wine and all that crap currently wine wont open anything so i am very unhappy. i have also tried virtual box i am on linux 10.4 and stupid virtual box will not install windows it gets half way and stops.
A. Try the program PlayOnLinux. if that does not work than I believe you are out of luck. Dont leave Linux though. Because are gaming base with double within the next 3 month. Valve is currently working on steam for linux. This will give us a big library of games.
