Beautiful Ubuntu Linux with Beryl effects

A demo of Ubuntu Feisty Fawn with Beryl effects on an Intel 945gm graphics card, Pentium core 2 duo 2ghz, 1gb RAM, booted from USB hard disk. The music in the background is 'Furia' by the Gipsy Kings off their 'Este Mundo' album. Hope you like the demo, the wallpaper is a little feminine but I really like how the firefox icon looks in the middle of the moon!

How does it look like in games? I mean, are there any problems to install/run them?

[neilbhave]

Most of the major games are supported, some you'll find are supported better than others, some even run faster on linux than on windows, but I still would recommend sticking to windows for gaming - if you're a big gamer, in my opinion linux is not a choice for main OS

[neilbhave]

Thanks, much appreciated, I will be doing a demo of compiz-fusion soon with my pclinuxos, once the 1st stable version is released

Gates could pay someone else to squirm for him if he felt the need.

@Sibs1990 THERE AN APP CALLED "WINE" IT CHANGES A WINDOWS APP API AND REWRITES IT TO RUN ON LINUX! THERE ARE ALSO OTHER WAYS (DUAL BOOTS, VIRTUAL MACHINE, OR WINE)! SORRY FOR YELLING!

@neilbhave real statement :) very nice vid! thanx for posting

[vapourmile]

@neilbhave It depends on what you want to OS for. If you want to develop web applications then Linux is somewhat better as a main OS. For the stuff you really need, like email, document creation, browsing and media, it covers all the bases. Windows is the better gaming platform, but seriously if it's games you want I'd take a good look at the XBOX 360 for that.

[ZenkzyHD]

linux is good for people who know how to use it.

[Poislow]

@Sibs1990 Yeah, you can use a program called Wine that runs Windows programs and such on the Linux, sadly it can take som time making it work, but most of the programs and such works right away! but not the game I wanted :/ But now I aint gonna game so much more so I'm switching to Linux!
