What computer/OS are you using?

Hmm...I'd say Linux Mint if you can handle WINE to anyd degree, otherwise any 32-bit Windows, NT's included, should work fine.

just do like i did, and opt for the x86-bit version of Win7. this way, i still have the capabilities to run newer stuff, but i can run my old games too. :3

Ubuntu 10.10 desktop edition

:3

Linux Mint is awesome, I wish I had a computer capable of running it. (Is installed on k8, but she won't stay on for more than a few minutes >__>)

OSX 10.6, still. When you have the best, why use anything else. owo

I'm still using 10.5. I just never got to upgrading, in part because Inkscape 0.46 doesn't work with 10.6.

Bella · March 12, 2011, 02:45:06 PM

...huh? I had Inkscape 0.46 installed... now I have 0.47.

Aurora Borealis · March 12, 2011, 03:05:34 PM

Back when 10.6 was released, I heard that from articles about its compatibility with major apps was that it didn't support Inkscape 0.46. Oops. ^^;

I'm going to order a CD/DVD of Xubuntu or Debian
:3 What do you think I should get? I can't decide ><

Btw, I'm on windows 7.

They're both free, so why the hell are you spending money on them?

CanaryTan · March 12, 2011, 06:21:28 PM

I'm getting the disks and they both cost money.
Well whatever, probably not gonna get it.
I just finished downloading Lubuntu. AND OH MY GOD, THE DOWNLOAD WAS SO FAST.

It's a valid question, but you shouldn't be so snippy about it. : |

Personally, I don't get why anyone would send away for any Linux CDs - I mean, even with a slow connection a download might take a few hours, while it could be weeeeeeeks before you get your CDR in the mail. And there's the matter of S&H... >______>

Ubuntu costs nothing to be shipped to you. I got mine for free.

Bella · March 12, 2011, 07:06:04 PM

But. I. don't. know. why.

Whyyyyyy would anybody send away for a CDR when they could just download it and have instant (or, helluva lot quicker than snail-mail) gratification?! : \

huh. weird. I had to pay for mine and I got them off the ubuntu website.

I burned Lubuntu to a CD and ran it for a trial run on my computer. I LOVED IT. I'm installing it right now. So far, Lubuntu is my all-time favorite

at least he didn't pay for this one....
