Default Re: Does SEIV run on XP????

Everything has its Pros and Cons. I love WinXp for my desktop and playing games on. I would use Win2000 or MAC as a single-purpose server for its nice menu admining. I would use unix for stability. I use Linux as my multipurpose server because it will take care of everything and the software plays well together (I dont rely on ISPs for any services).

only old geezers need to read this
By the way one of the things that linux does excell is "emulators". They have one for nearly every console or old computer system people remember fondly so if you ever watned to go back and play your commodore, trs80, amiga games then look into pulling that old computer out of the closet and loading linux on it. Thats another big point for linux, being able to get a free software and turn the old computer into a server or router or firewall.
