The road ahead
Linux is the way forward, is it? The future of alternative computing and all that? My experience of Unix machines only covers the terminals at uni and I wasn’t impressed, although I think they probably had outdated kernels and were badly configured – I never even got around to installing LinuxAPUS on my trusty PPC-powered Amiga (you shouldn’t laugh).
So, is it worth installing LinuxAPUS and the basic Red Hat distribution that appeared on an AFCD and joining the Linux revolution? I remain to be convinced.
