Under Linux the typical choices are works or does not work at all. With Windows you will often get flakyness instead. The problem is that Windows has a consumer-grade desktop mindset, while Linux has a server-grade mindset. A downside of this is that non-server hardware, for example gaming video cards tend to have far worse support. Arno -- Arno Wagner, Dr. sc. techn., Dipl.

But anytime I want to pretend I am a system admin I can fire up the old Mint Linux box anyway, but I rarely do because Windows just does what I want better than Linux. |
