Yeah, as ever, I can’t be satisfied with Microsoft Windows yet again.

I’ve tried 2 distributions of Linux so far, Vector and PC Linux OS, which seem to be a downward spiral and somehow or rather, I failed and went back to Windows.

This time around I will be a bit precautious in my next act.

I’ve been reading a lot about Wine and stuffs on how you could actually get Windows application on Linux platforms and this time around I’ll be doing a lot more research before I “walk the plank” .

There’s a couple of distros that might attract me so far …. Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Sabayon and Puppy Linux.

(Note : Most of them are on Gnome)

I prefer KDE environment actually but having tried both the latter and XFE (Vector Linux), I will try my luck on this environment this time around.

Hopefully it will work OK (for the third time of my experience) and if you have any suggestions on which distro I should install on my laptop, drop me a comment …… best yet (which distro has Wine running Windows applications perfectly).

Onward to the Penguin …. till next post.
