software advisor henry Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 If ubuntu linux (GNOME) had buttons much smaller (without the enormous padding), had more green and blue and didn't require a graphics card and XGL to run Desktop Effects, I would have switched permanently. Windows XP has a hell lot of 3rd party apps that do this well and Windows Vista (which I don't use) can do it superb (although it sucks the f---ing life out of your computer while doing so) still using windows xp if windows 7 could have (1) much less processes; (2) UAC didn't prompt during removing shortcuts (I actually like it when it pops up and tells me that something is going into program files) and didn't prompt before I clicked apply in Control Panel; (3) Sidebar doesn't drink all the blood out of the CPU/RAM; (4) Start up in 20 seconds; (5) Restored the up button in Windows Explorer; (6) Remove so many explorer options; (7) No more 3-rd party tweaking manager required to change the simplest settings; (8) Disk Cleanup which doesn't scan for items I don't select; (9) Uses gzipped stripped XML configuration files such as for tagging pictures (and Notepad should support it and auto indent tags too); I'd switch to it immediately.
Wizard Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 @Henry: You know you can change how Ubuntu looks right?
Kryptex Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 I use all of them. Windows when I am coding, because my Windows computer has an clickier keyboard which I can type faster with. I use Macintosh for social networking sites. When i am hacking I use Linux.
