I’ve been seeing all these posts about Linux lately, and looking at them, I can honestly see the appeal. I’d love having so much autonomy over the OS I use, and customize it however I like, even having so many options to choose from when it comes to distros. The only thing holding me back, however, is incompatibility issues. A lot of programs I work with very often are Windows-exclusive, and alternatives supporting Linux are rare. So I guess I’m stuck with Windows, since I deem those particular programs really important.
Any advice from Linux nerds here? All constructive replies are very appreciated.
I only use it to run productivity apps inside a VM (Adobe Reader etc), so no issues here.
I think the most problems people have with it is running it on real hardware, since it lacks drivers and stuff.
hmmm, good to know I may have to track down drivers for a regular install, I missed that. Thanks for the feedback!
