Three LindowsOS PCs Reviewed

Eugenia writes "Not one, but three LindowsOS-based PCs (in the value range of $199 USD) were reviewed online by WashingtonPost. A TigerDirect PC, the traditional WalMart/MicrotelPC and one from Nova Computech. The reviewer says that these PCs while are very low-end today, compared to PCs 2 years ago, are actually pretty good solutions for home usage. The reviewer found them lacking in the gaming (no respectable 3D gfx card included), expandibility departments and while he mentions that Linux-based LindowsOS is affordable, is not a panacea as it lacks in good USB support and other demanding areas of our modern times."

Joe ServicePack can buy WindowsXP by jkrise · 2003-06-16 02:05 · Score: 1, Flamebait

The price of convenience is the effort to understand technology. If Joe ServicePack cannot put in the effort, he deserves the latest Service Pack and the associated hell from MS.

Linux (any flavor) is not for Joe.
