 Rating:  - Fantastic!After evaluating many Linux distributions for my employer and for use at home, this is the only one that I found to be user friendly enough to recommend. A critical area for home dialup users is the modem issue. Many distributions require you to find and download drivers, as well as executing difficult (for the average user) command line routines. Not so with Xandros. It doesn't support every modem, but I had no trouble with it recognizing a 3Com external, and a number of PCI internals. Setting ...

Functionally works nice for the Internet most of the time although problems with the system make for troublesome anoyances like crashes - just like 98se.

Downloading applications through Xandros Networks is a snap. Installation or removal of applications is easy. Technical support has been fast and excellent. My only minor gripe is that Networks needs to make available most recent versions of KDE and OpenOffice products. Also, despite excellent tech support, can not get KOffice applications to open. Other KDE products, ... Read More Rating: - The first Linux distribution that works right out of the box.I have been using Linux several years now at both work and home. I highly recommend Xandros if you do not want to pay the high price for MS Windows. If you just want to replace MS Windows with a less expensive Operating System then Xandros is the answer. If you want to dual boot your current MS Windows computer and you are willing to read, learn and spend sometime getting Linux to work the way you want, then I highly recommend Ubuntu and Red Hat Fedora. I also recommend you get the paid membership ... Read More |
