Review: Presto Instant-On Revives Old PCs

,----[ Quote ]
| Xandros is taking a new approach to fuel the Linux market. The company is 
| offering Presto, a distribution of the open-source operating system that  
| offers something Windows doesn't—an “instant-on” boot-up experience. 
| 
| [...]
| 
| Based on our tests, Xandros Presto proves to be a powerful tool for enhancing 
| the capabilities of newer laptops and breathing new life into older, slower 
| Windows machines.

"I’d be glad to help tilt lotus into into the death spiral. I could do it
Friday afternoon but not Saturday. I could do it pretty much any time the
following week."

| I know there are lots of Linux distros out there but I chose Ubuntu because
| I'm a Linux newbie. If you know your way around Windows then it seems to be
| very easy to pick up.

Facing the full horror of Windows Vista

,----[ Quote ]
| So far, Transit has been using Vista Business full-time for a fortnight.
| And so far, we've found nothing that works better than in Windows XP,
| dozens of things that are annoyingly different without being a
| functional improvement, and several things that work at best
| intermittently and at worst not at all. On the whole, we wish
| we'd never moved.
