dude, linux rocks!!

hey guys, im proud to proclaim that im almost a fully linux user! everything about linux is so cool! i can make many different adjustments to it. however, IF my pRINTER IS GONNA FINALLY WORK, IM GOING TO THROW MS WINDOWS OUTTA OF MY HOSUE!!!! all i can say is, "wow, linux roxs!"

lemma compare differences between windows and linux:

windows
*******
-restricts me from accessing important files.
-many limitations.
-plain
-many good applications are commerical which requires me to buy
-and more

linux
****
-holy ****, SO SO INVERSE to ms windows!!!!
-allows me to recompile the kernel source code, and the other files.
-many good applications are free to download from the internet
-FREE programming languages
-and many more!!

seriously, for past 20 hours with redhat linux 8.. dude, im getting even more wiser and smart. hopefully, i might be 1337 someday! when i had to use windows for HL: Counter-Strike game, i looked at ms windows's desktop and menus and **** like that... i was like.. "UGGHH!! god!" lol.. u know how it is. :D A question.. IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN PLAY HL:COUNTER-STRIKE ON RED HAT LINUX 8 MACHINE!?!?!? :D :D

Hey! I'm glad for such a response. That's like the most powerful ever. Linux banzai! =)
If you installed Wine, you could try running HL with it. There are successful reports of running HL in Wine, but I wouldn't count on it. Anyway, the best way to find out is to try. Try WineX as well. It's available on sourceforge.net.

Its not long since winex3 was relased, and i think CS will run good at it because CS runs 50/50 at some friends of mine with winex2.2 something. www.transgaming.com

I don't really care much about windows programs these days, but every time I've tried a program that is essentially more advanced than notepad or mspaint, wine crashes for different reasons. I've tried at least 4 Wine distributions and currently a WineX from sourceforge. I haven't done much (or any) research on it, though; maybe there's just something I haven't done.

well, trying different -winver's etc does seem to work some times, strangely, but the closest i have come to run my favorite game Commandos, is to find out that winex doesnt support the cd copy protection on the cd :(

Also, some directx based game is supposed to run 100% on linux, so the developers must be doing something right ;)

Commandos is a good game. I'm sure there is some crack that you can use, don't you think?

yeah, true. wounder why i never thought of that...
But now there is a problem nr. 2: where is the cd? :-?

lol... that might be a worse problem...
