Default Re: Operating System poll

Linux. (ubuntu 7.10 right now, although I've gone through everything from Caldera 2.2, to Red Hat 7.4, to Mandriva 8.6.)

Windoze 98 is installed on this computer, but now that I have 1G of memory it will no longer boot. Doesn't matter, I have a separate machine that has Red Hat 7.4 and Windoze 98 on it so I can play all my old (Loki! and other) games.

Interestingly, the hardware on this machine is failing, yet linux seems to deal with it, and Windoze just crashes; I mean more than usual (if I pull out a 512K stick to make it work).

In the end, is that DOM3 is a cross-platform game, and we all can enjoy it. What makes it easily cross-platform is that it is NOT developed in Windoze.

Also with linux I have the luxury of Wine and Dosemu for those times when I need them.
[I run ACBLSCORE (bridge players know) under Dosemu, and my favorite proxy-server/filter, the Proxomitron, under Wine.]
