SummaryXandros 1.0 is truly Linux for the masses, and deserves your support. Sure, it's $99 at a time when you can pick up a copy of RedHat 8.0 for $39, but Xandros does things automatically that leave RedHat (and other Linux distros) wanting. The simple fact that you can install and run Xandros 1.0 in 20 minutes, even run modern 3D games during your first boot, is amazing. Windows network integration, something that is certainly doable in other distros through a manual installation of Samba, is again automatic, and works 'out of the box.' Updating Xandros is easy, and unlike RedHat Networks, happens immediately, right after you click the link. Best of all, Xandros is based on an extremely solid foundation - Debian Linux, so you don't have to worry about reliability or security.There are some bugs, but surprisingly few for a version 1.0. It's obvious to me that they've taken a huge amount of time and effort up front to work out this mostly seamless integration of Debian Linux, Xandros-specific functionality and KDE 2.2, all plastered together cohesively via solid programming philosophy and perl scripting. It's all rather amazing, when you get right down to it.If you're looking for an alternative to Windows, look no further than Xandros. You'll be pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to use Linux!Xandros Web Site
