TurboLinux 10f Review - PowerDVD on Linux

Posted by michael on from the vroom-vroom dept.

BootLinux writes "The first review of TurboLinux 10f has been posted by Flexbeta. TurboLinux 10f is the first Linux distribution to include a commercial DVD player, PowerDVD. It also bundles Microsoft licensed media codecs and the ability to connect with Apple's iPods. With the addition of these and other multimedia applications is it safe to say that Linux is finally a conteder in the desktop market?"

    Linux has been a contender in the desktop market for a long time now.
    For anyone with more than 2 brain cels to rub together....

    There has been software to real DVD's on linux for a long time now, and if you really want to download and get all your media files in a cruddy DRM file format from Microsoft, then you deserve your fate. Make OGG files and live free. :)
