A Challenge To All Linux Users In The World
Blog Comment There are lighter gui's around in the linux world & they should all be sufficient for what you plan to do, eventhough i'm surprised an embedded systems specialist needs a gui on a server. I'm a bit puzzled by your challenge proposition by some...

How To Talk To Microsoft About Linux
Talkback The rest is the usual stuff about "nice GUI interface", "use what works", yada, yada. GUI looks are a matter of opinion, so I won't go there; but the "Windows works and I have support" is just plain silly.

Linux Kernel: Moving Closer To Windows?
Talkback The GUI can't be stopped. If you are running a server, why do you need a GUI? Windows' bad ideas: I'm certainly not going to walk into the computer, because I can just connect from another computer. ACLs are slooooow.

Apple Warned Over 'misleading' Power Mac Speed Claim
Talkback I like macs because the GUI is so colorful and they look cool in the store.but I guess that it's because I'm a graphic artist. I like to hang out in coffee shops and dress all in black and bash pcs, but I really don't have the time to do that too...

Desktop Linux For Small Business
Talkback All I wanted was something with an easy GUI for me to get a feel for "Open Source". I'm a Linux Fresher. I didn't know what to go for and frankly didn't care. I'm just amazed that you can get all this funky software without paying the FatCat premiums.

A Challenge To All Linux Users In The World
Blog Comment I agree with most of what you said, except for the part about running windows in a virtual server as that would drain way too much resources & i'm not even sure if it works if the server runs without gui.

DebbieToo, A New Serverbaby, Is Running.
Blog The Disk Manager looks very nice and I think they have improved the look of the GUI. Installed Debian 4 (etch) on Debbie's hard drive and this time I did it the easy way. My DSL line is twice the speed it was at the time I started this whole thing.

How To Talk To Microsoft About Linux

Overall, Quite Good
Member Review The GUI enhancements and application upgrades for the most part are really quite good, but for €150 it it deffinitely not worth the money. Granted, I had only been using OS X for two months prior to 10.3's release, so I wasn't fully at home with it...
