    Running for about half a year, with no formats, installing and uninstalling a ton of programs, and generally mucking about, with no loss of speed, no need to defrag and no interruptions or absurd errors


    Im way a newbie, but I think the most amazing thing I have personally seen is Damn Small Linux. Neatest party trick

    This absolutely nothing to do with this. Do not drift off.

    Wow... I dont know what to say... I was really starting to not mind you, but, whatever. Youre choice, though it does seem there are two of you. One who is nice and posted post #36, which was funny. And one who is... Not that nice. As in post #43. (Guess which one I want you to be? o.O).

    Heh. Its pretty hard to be mad when I am listening to a very awesome song right now.

    Not sure where that rant came from. Thought his posts were harmless TBH

    Anyway, I would think a lot of us on these forums will empathise with bored2k's comment that "it has kept us off software piracy!" And further we would concur that it is quite some feat! Yey!!

    About a month I go I threw out every item of pirated software I had in my possession. My WinXP drive (which I very rarely use now) has a paid for WinXP licence and everything else is open source. Brilliant!

    Re: Amazing Feats Performed with Linux

    I am amazed at how much success people on this thread have achieved with Linux / Ubuntu. As a newbie WinXp convert to Ubuntu, I've been struggling since the launch of Breezy with a silent, muted, no sound Acer 4061 laptop.

    I wonder if any experts and gurus here have had any success with a PC or laptop with similar hardware. Intel HDA ICH6, Realtek ALC260 chip. This problem was also posted in other threads but no one has found a way out to break the silent, no sound barrier.

    Many thanks in advance for suggestions, ideas, workarounds, solutions etc.

    Same here. Especially when you consider software piracy kept me away from mac OSX in the past.
