They said they had linux but what they really has was Sun Solaris on ix86. Well---- I worked for hours trying to install Solaris 10 and couldnt get things to work. And the forums for Solaris are not very good. I made a phone call a minute ago saying, "I installed Ubuntu on 8 computers in the time I got through the first set of menus and the thing crashed. Ill install Ubuntu for you?" My point is, while I know Solaris is for a different use, its to darn difficult to install and therefore, who knows if its good to use. I know Ubuntu installs fast and easy and its easy to use. I think that says it all. wade </BODY> </HTML>
