I can back up my local data,but not my applications under windows.
Use Windows
only for gameing.
Use some Unix like Linux or *BSD (or MacOS X) for everything else.
Where is the problem? Dual booting a PeeCee is't black magic.
I stoped using Windows 17 years ago.
I have a few apps that are free - low cost compared to linux/unix
apps.
??!
The other problem is I could never get X-windows to
window right on
that
apps that used them,
I use X all day, every day, have for 20+ years...no problems
here. WTF?
or a linux version I liked.
Forgive me, but is this just a "this looks different from what I'm
used to so I don't like it" situation?
Right now I would like to find out about getting
"THE WOODWRIGHT'S
SHOP"
PBS videos, on VHS tapes, rather than a copy of linux since VHS
tapes are vanishing quickly, and linux will be around a few more
years.
Ok you totally lost me here. Somehow getting some VHS tapes or
downloading Linux disk images are mutually exclusive?
