bought linux sometime ago but it was not compatible with my on board video
and sound cards! been thinking of buying PCI cards just to get linux
running, but have put it off. just procrastinating<grin> The linux folks
need to make it easier to install
the operating system and I hear the software is harder to install as well.
Maybe since IBM is supporting linux now things will get better.
Just my two cents worth.
