how about some linux box sets
ie mandriva or and suse
just a thought!!!

Problem would be providing back up , get a barebone and whack Linspire on it
,besides unless you really like tinkering with your system and getting things to work , youd be better off with XP, its so much easier to use , have a decent av, and firewall and ad aware programme you cant really go wrong.

Ive tried Linspire and Ubutnu and as much as they are fine , in the end i still Like XP but thats me :)

I think g7syj is after the Cardboard type of box and not a fully built Linux box ;)

if all the computers in the world were clustered together and running MindReader v1.1 for the entire rest of time and asked to work out the mind of one woman, the best answer they would come up with would probably be \"42\"...

a little bit of linux wouldn't go wrong, some box sets and other compatilbe software

I for one would like to see the Linux operating system available to buy from aria instead of having to buy a dodgy one from ebay - (they currently do not distribute these to UK however they are available to download - but registered distributers are able to sell these CDs. If Aria becomes a licensed distributer i would love to buy linux products through them as i know they offer competitive prices. Linspire is currently one of the commercial versions of Linux available. Unlike the open source Linux versions such Ubuntu and Freespire

On top of that Linux is a fraction of the cost of Microsoft products, and ive found that they can do nearly everything a Microsoft OS can do and it supports Microsoft Media such as Doc files etc.

This thread has two purposes, one is to promote Linux products and another is to motivate Aria to realise that as loyal customers, we would like to see Linux products available to purchase so that people can benefit from the low costs and savings made from them in the UK like people benefit from it in America.

For reference ive made a poll to see how many people feel the same. I would appreciate if you can give your opinion and also click on your option. The more people that give there opinion it will give Aria the initiative to consider distribituting Linux software for the Wide audience of Linux customers

Why pay? good linux is free, all you need to do is find a site with a good download speed and in an hour to two, you have linux, i reccomend linux magazine if you want linux without the downloads.
