iMagic OS may very well be the alternative to Vista we have all been
waiting for. Yeah, you've heard it a thousand times. And yes, I am a
Linux fan. But seriously, aren't you just sick of Vista? I mean its
alright, nice UI, more secure, blah blah, but really, on the inside,
its not all that better than XP. And what Microsoft is asking for it, I
mean, I would love Vista Ultimate, but $320, come on, I am not a
millionaire. And I am not buying another PC just to get Vista preloaded
thank you very much. But iMagic OS, you want a sleek, UI, bleeding edge
3d desktop, nice Vista-like design with improved Mac OS X window decor,
and thats just the Interface. Next you get the easiest installer I have
ever seen on Linux, one-click. No fussy package manager, just a modern,
easy to use installer. And One Click. Well next up you have tons, well
over a Gigabyte, of software installed. They chose the most modern, up
to date stuff available. Everything you would ever want and 3 times
more. Its also much more secure and *much faster* than Vista. Plus you
got two and a half office suites, and *almost completely Microsoft
Compatible.* You can run Office '07, IE6, Media Player 9, Tons.
Anything virtually will work. If you want them to test something, just
ask. The downside: it costs 50 bucks. Now, I could afford that, but I'm
sure a lot of you are awful low on cash. But compared to vista, I could
live with that.

Don't take my word for it, look on the website, Windows Vista vs.
iMagic OS.

Re: Alternative to Vista, iMagic OS

But it is still Linux.
People who work for a living are tied to applications that are published for
Windows and may be available in a Mac version.
Most businesses run on applications dedicated to some version of Windows.
Granted many of these may not run on Vista, but that is why Microsoft seems
to be run by the same geniuses as Lehman Brothers, Bear Sterns and the rest
of the bean counters who can't count, most of whom are Republicans.
If you require Photoshop than any flavor of Linux is a no go.
If you are a high end gamer Linux is a no go.
If you simply surf the web and create minimally formatted documents, think
Gimp is not aptly named, and spend more time futzing with your OS than doing
work then Linux is for you.

Yes, but that is changing.

Not true - photoshop runs fine under wine.

True, but who cares.

Not true. People have at least the same proportions of problems with
Windows.

Linspire?!

Linspire?!

Dude, iMagic OS is like nothing you've ever seen before. You can run Office
'07, Photoshop, and even War Craft, Age of Empires II, Halo, you name it.
Plus a sweet desktop, with easy to install software. But it costs the same is
Linspire (now owned by Xandros)
 
Re: Linspire?!

Re: Linspire?!

how does it achieve this compatibility?

I don’t think its wine.. since wine cant handle all applications...

do you have any idea?
