    OpenGL for Direct3D, OpenAL perhaps for DirectMusic, SDL for DirectInput.
    All the buzzt!

    Out of curiosity, why do you say? IMHO, as long as I've got "apt-get" I'm good to go.

    Cool

    I agree that when a OS is used for your personal computer, linux might be a bit pesky with the root privilege thing.
    But the design of the OS was general enough that it might be used for multi-user environments. In such a case, it would be chaos to let users do the tasks it sees as administrative.
    Besides the thing got somewhat flexible with sudo and gksudo keeping timers, so that i can for example do a batch of administration when i feel that my head is up and running, and then frolic again in my inherrent stupidity as a user throwing potentialy destructive 'sudo-less' jargon at the prompt of my little xfce-terminal.
    Code:
    ...
        goto johny_walker_red_label;
    johny_walker_blue_label: exit(-149$);
    johny_walker_red_label : exit( -22$);
    A typical example of ...cheap programming practices.

    OpenSUSE offers so much more out of the box.
    But besides that, I take it back. The new one is:
    Windows > Linux.
    This is what I've come to realize in my own opinion after trying Linux.
    The OS are two of different kind. They really should exist as separate markets. Windows users shouldn't "go Linux" nor the other way around.

    Heheh, I already linked to this in the "Vista design being forced on XP?" thread: Linux is Not Windows. By your own admission, "Windows > Linux" must be wrong, otherwise Linux users should switch to Windows.

If they do, I ask them to find the smallest example that exhibits the problem and send me that. Mostly, they then find the error themselves. "Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    True, but everyone has an opinion on which side of market they want to stay on. I like user interfaces, I don't like command lines, so I stay with Windows.
    On the other hand, some people like command line interfaces over user interfaces and therefore stay with Linux.

    So, some believe "Windows > Linux" and some believe "Linux > Windows".
    Which can hold true in opinions, but in reality, neither operating system is superior to the other because they are two different systems aimed at different purposes.
