beanboy89 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Xubuntu 12.04 (Xfce 4.8) on a free PC that was given to me because the hard drive was going bad. I ripped all the drives from the PC to scrap/reuse them, and am running Xubuntu completely from a USB flash drive. There are a few bugs, but it seems to be running fairly well. If I ever get around to getting another hard drive in this machine, I'm going to keep using Xubuntu; it's a nice OS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorak Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Yes! I meant to make thier Linux desktop look as much as mac or windows as possible Why would you want to? I have never and will never understand why people want to take their current operating system and make it look like another. You can easily use all three operating systems. OS X can be installed on most PC hardware (at least on the Intel side). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
