Question of compatability...
#1

can Linux play games like Starcraft and Diablo? They work on mac and windows, but would it work on Linux too? Also, I was toldLinux was free, but the site sure didn't say so, was this dude bullshitting me, or am I missing out on something?

Linux have many games : http://www.loki.com for example....
I have more links if you wanna have.

You can run ANY game that works in W98 under a thing called Win4Lin.

Linux IS Free.....

If you wanna have the packages containig a base manual and some cd's with extra material you can buy them .....

If you are new to linux i recomend : RedHat, Suze and Caldera.
If you are used to Linux : Slackware

Why do I keep this cesspool alive?

leeman, what's your views on Mandrake? I notice it's not on your list for newbies. I think it has a great installer and there is something that asks you if you want to install dependencies which I know is not in RH. I'm pretty much a newbie as well (althought I know some of the commands and how to install and what not) and that feature is sweet!

Well to me Mandrake and RH are the same ....

But ofcause Mandrake should have been on n00b list...

Why do you say that? A friend of mine who has used RH says that they broke it since 9.0. He uses Mandrake quite successfully in his ISP. He's replaced everything with Linux server-wise using Mandrake.
