IDK if anyone's looking for windows and stuff for their new rig and if you don't use a pirated version then look on ebay instead of $200 you can get one for about $80!! (fullversion). So Yeah .

Re: OS Shopping

Well i still would not trust the ebay ones too much, they might also be pirate. To whomever said Corporate Edition, well guess what MS took care of that too, i know of a way to get around it, but is not the good old Genuine Validation Key tool. Hint is more on the actuall website that you edit stuff.

I had Linux and to be honest guys i did not like it, had to look for **** all over the place to get stuff to work, this was like 2 years ago, maybe is better now. But nothing can beat MS for support or drivers.

Go MS.

All depends really, the one thing I can say for Linux is it always gets better, next year will be better then this year and the year after that will be better...

Also depends on the distro, I've got Fedora Core 5 64 bit installed and ok apart from having to spend a few hours installing several applications when i installed the OS it works like a charm and Yum provides just about every application your could ever posably want.
