  1. The site im currently constructing will be focused heavily on RSS feeds, has anyone had much experience with CMSs' and their RSS plug-ins?Ideally I would like dynamic pages created with their associate RSS feed. I was looking to use Drupal but am open to suggestions.I am coming back to PHP and web coding since RSS feeds have taken off, are any CMS plug-ins more equiped for future RSS tech advances? (Real simple advances?)Any advice is appreciated.-Jordan
  2. Sorry let me clarify, linux is a world apart as far as functionality and well everything. I think were at a point now with all the Vista fun where linux will pick up as a consumer os. But most people, who have used windows since grade school (part of microsoft's 'philanthropy') have a hard time making the switch.I could set up a distro to do everything my grandmother needs to do. But my father would reject the idea of file permissions and would always want to run defrag... (and on a side note probably thinking he's supporting the communist party)Its awesome your being pro-active, I will help any of my friends with their issues for the sake of the 'cause'. The gaming industry is still dictating trends right now in my opinion. I get alot of resistance still not sure why, perhaps I get too technical on people.
  3. Thats always a tough question, it depends why you ask it.Generally its because people dont want to learn the differences between the OSs and want everything point and click. First let me say this will leave you disapointed, switching from Windows to Linux is like switching from checkers to chess, it might be a bit of a learning curve but youll enjoy the final experience a whole lot more.I would choose ubuntu, its set up is very easy and most things (eg wine) can be installed directly from the package manager with no compiling knowledge needed.Other distros have tried to mimic windows (Lindows for one) but it never seems to work, there are things like file permissions that windows users have trouble with.Ubuntu is by far the most supported as far as getting help, if you have an issue you type a seach in google with your problem and 'ubuntu' in the title chances are you'll get your answer.Good luck!-JordanP.S. Running windows .exe files even in an emulator in linux will still run badly (by linux standards) you may only be as stable as your windows pc running the same files. It is HIGHLY recommended to find a linux alternative to the program you are running, youd be amazed how many windows programs are cloned in *nix.
