Top 5 Regrets After Migrating From Windows To Linux最常见的5个遗憾后，从Windows迁移到Linux
It has been several months that I fully migrated to Linux.它已经数个月，我完全迁移到Linux系统。 The whole company has moved 100% to Linux, all servers, desktop … every machine.整个公司提出了100 ％到Linux ，所有服务器，台式机…每一台机器。 The only traces of Windows are in two of my personal laptops, the IBM ThinkPad with Windows 2000 and the Compaq Presario with Windows XP, which I have kept for testing purposes only.唯一的痕迹， Windows是在两个我个人的笔记本电脑， IBM的ThinkPad与Windows 2000和Compaq Presario配置的Windows XP ，我一直仅用于测试。 My top 5 regrets after migrating to Linux are:我最常见的5个遗憾后，纷纷改用Linux系统是：
5. 5 。 I should have bought a scanner after checking it’s Linux compatibility.我应该买了扫描检查后，它的Linux兼容性。 My UMax Astra 4100 is still not supported.我umax的Astra 4100仍是不支持。 I am using my Compaq Laptop to use it, which also adorns my desk and is我用我的康柏笔记型电脑使用它，它也adorns我的书桌和是 remotely controlled from the keyboard and mouse on my Linux desktop machine远程控制从键盘和鼠标对我的Linux桌面机 . 。
4. 4 。 Why did I spend so much on Windows software when I could get equivalent alternatives (for free) on Linux?我为什么要花那么多对Windows软体时，我可以得到相当于替代品（免费）在Linux上？ All my Windows software are gathering dust nowadays.我所有的Windows软件正在收集粉尘现在。
3. 3 。 Linux is like a Rolls Royce while Windows is like a Honda Accord. Linux是像劳斯莱斯，而Windows是像本田雅阁。 While Linux takes lots of configuration, the end result is your own operating system made to your taste.而Linux的需要大量的配置，最终的结果是自己的作业系统给您的口味。 All these years I felt boxed in Windows; now I feel liberated.所有这些年来我觉得盒装在Windows ，现在我觉得解放。 My only regret is why did I miss realizing this in my earlier analysis on migration.我唯一感到遗憾的是我为什么这样错过实现这一在我刚才的分析迁移。
2. 2 。 It is regrettable that big brand names like Compaq or IBM would rather ship the computer with FreeDos than with Linux operating system.但遗憾的是，大品牌的名称一样，康柏或IBM宁愿船舶计算机与freedos比与Linux作业系统。 It appears to me their way of appeasing Microsoft; do I hear monopoly practices?看来我自己的方式安抚微软;做我听到垄断行为？
I would be happy to pay extra for well configured Linux boxes than for hardware without an OS or just FreeDos.我会很乐意支付额外费用，以及配置Linux的箱子比硬件没有一个OS或只是freedos 。 Dell has taken the lead in providing Linux powered desktops.戴尔已率先采取行动，在提供动力的Linux台式机。
1. Why didn’t I migrate sooner? It pains me to see how much I missed over the years by sticking to Windows. 1 。 为什么我没有迁移迟早呢？痛苦，我看到我是多么错过多年来坚持到Windows 。 It was bad for my business and bad for my personal productivity.这是坏我的业务和坏我个人的生产力。
Linux, after you spend some time with it, can be a huge productivity booster. Linux的，当您花一些时间有了它，可以是一个巨大的生产力的助推器。 All of my developers and QA are extremely happy with it and wouldn’t trade it for any other operating system.我所有的开发和质量保证感到非常高兴与它不会贸易，它为任何其他作业系统。 I am very much hooked to Linux.我感到十分钩到了linux系统。
I personally think Linux today heralds the beginning of the end for Microsoft.我个人认为， Linux的今天，预示着终结的开始为Microsoft 。 Linux is ready to take on Microsoft for what its worth today and now. Linux是准备采取对微软有什么它的价值，今天和现在。 Take the plunge today and thank me later.采取投身今日，并感谢我稍后。 I have done it and am enjoying it.我这样做，很享受。

You are living in a delusional world if you think, as you stated, “Linux today heralds the beginning of the end for Microsoft.”你正生活在一个妄想世界，如果你认为，正如你指出， “ Linux的今天，预示着终结的开始，为微软” 。
Have you researched how small a percentage of total world sales, Linux owns.你的研究多么小的百分比，占世界销售， Linux的拥有。
I am a full time user of Linux on my home PC’s but that statement of yours is just wishful thinking on the part of another Linux zealot.我是一个全职的用户的Linux系统我的家用PC的，但该声明你只是一厢情愿的想法，对部分其他Linux zealot 。
I think the Linux community has its best shot at developing a niche into Microsoft, in the way Ubuntu is doing it.我认为Linux社区有其最佳影像在发展非主流成为微软，在方式， Ubuntu的是这样做。 It takes money to fight money.需要金钱来打击洗钱。

Phil, I disagree.菲尔，我不同意。
He said “beginning of the end” not “M$ is gone tomorrow”他说： “结束的开始” ，而不是“米元，是经历了明天”
10 years from now, Windows will be fighting for space on the desktop. 10年从现在开始， Windows将争取空间，在桌面上。
20 years from now, M$ will be radically different from what it is today.从现在起20年内，米元，将彻底什么不同，这是今天。
If M$ thought Linux wasn’ta threat, they wouldn’t be doing all the sabre-rattling of “patent infringement” FUD and all this recent bs.如果米元思想的Linux不是威胁，他们会不会做的所有剑-剧烈震动的“专利侵权” fud而这一切最近学士学位。
It may be longer than 10 years, but it’s gonna happen.它可能会更长超过10年，但它在哪里发生。

Have you researched how much of the server market Linux owns?你的研究有多少服务器市场Linux的拥有呢？
What I am saying is that Linux is not only the best choice for a server but also the best choice of a desktop, today and now.我的意思是说， Linux的不仅是最好的选择，一台服务器，但也是最好的选择，一个桌面上，今天和现在。 I am saying this from loads of personal experience with Windows over the years and Linux for about 6 months of intense immersion.我这样说是从载荷的个人经验与Windows多年来和Linux为6个月左右的紧张沉浸。
That Microsoft survives today in the desktop market speaks volumes about their marketing acumen (my hats off to them) but not the capability of their operating system.微软赖以生存的今天，在台式机市场说话卷他们的营销智慧（我的帽子，小康向他们） ，但没有能力，他们的作业系统。
I think in the next 5 years we will see a dramatic correction in the desktop market share of Linux OS.我认为，在未来五年我们将看到一个戏剧性的校正在台式机市场份额的Linux操作系统。

hi Angsuman,喜由Angsuman ，
Several developers still think Linux is NOT there yet.几个开发商仍然认为， Linux是还没有。 More accurately, they think that更准确的说，他们认为
Windows(Not vista) reigns supreme on the desktop在Windows （不Vista的）至高无上的在桌面上

for one developer’s thought on why windows wins over other OSes.为一个发展的思想，为什么在Windows战胜其他操作系统。
I agree that Linux is second to none on the server side EXCEPT for the manageability (where MS wins hands down).我同意， Linux是第二首屈一指的对服务器端除可管理性（如女士的手中赢下来） 。
But … Desktop, Manageability is very important in Big enterprises and Linux is way off there.但…桌面，可管理性是非常重要的大企业和Linux是有过的方式。 The amount of documentation available to get a SOHO to use 100% linux is very little.文件数量可取得的SOHO使用100 ％ ， Linux是非常少。 The number of people who can get a business owner setup a 100% SOHO are very few and spread far out.有多少人谁可以得到企业主安装了100 ％的SOHO是很少和蔓延至今。
Once the above issues are taken care of, there won’t be much Linux needs to do.一旦上述问题所采取的照顾，不会有太大的Linux需要做的。 Now that a new version of Ubuntu has been announced (LTS) for april 08, some of the above issues will be taken care of.现在，新版本的Ubuntu的已经公布（及其） 4月8日，上述一些问题将得到照顾。 I would not hesitate to bet that in 5 years, Linux Desktop will be more than 20% of all the desktops/laptops/cells in the world.我会毫不犹疑地投注，在五年， Linux桌面将有20 ％以上的所有台式机/笔记本电脑/细胞，在世界上。
The fact that Java Swing is getting better and being open sourced can only make this process faster.事实上， Java的摆动是渐入佳境，并正在开放的来源只能使这一进程加快。 Also, RIA apps like AJAX and FLASH with increasing Internet coverage make it easy for SOHOs to use any OS.此外，规管影响评估应用程序一样，阿贾克斯和Flash与网际网路的覆盖范围，增加可以很容易为sohos使用任何操作系统。
Just my 2 cents.只是我的2美分。

Lot has changed since Cedric wrote about Linux.很多已经改变自cedric写的Linux系统。 You should check it out now.您应该检查出来。 I would recommend Xubuntu or Fedora as desktop.我建议将xubuntu或Fedora的桌面。
I have been using Linux (specifically Fedora Core 6) for over 6 months now and I can safely say Linux has today matured enough to provide the usability, functionality and manageability of Windows or Mac.我一直在使用Linux （特别是Fedora Core 6 ）为6个月以上，现在我可以放心地说， Linux已经成熟的今天，以提供足够的可用性，功能性和可管理性的Windows或Mac 。
In work machines we have the home directories mounted on NFS, the user authentication served using NIS.在工作的机器，我们有home目录安装在NFS的，用户身份验证服务，使用新谢克尔。 This allows any developer to work on any machines and still get the same environment, desktop and files.这使得任何开发工作，对任何机器和仍收到相同的环境，桌面和文件。
The NFS & NIS are served from a server with RAID-1 disks.该NFS的＆新谢克尔是从一个服务器与RAID 1磁盘。
The data is automatically backed up on a different RAID-1 server on periodic basis, providing for a robust setup.数据自动备份一个不同的RAID - 1服务器上定期的基础上，提供一个稳健的安装程序。
I use the Fedora CD’s to install the operating system with our necessary software.我使用的Fedora裁谈会的安装作业系统与我们的必要的软件。 The NFS & NIS take care of the rest.该NFS的＆新谢克尔照顾，其余的。 It becomes a part of our cluster which can be used by any developer as his login and passwords are valid on every machine and even over VNC.它成为我们的一部分群集可用于任何开发作为他的登录名和密码是有效的对每一台机器，甚至超过的VNC 。 I am thinking about creating either a custom CD with only our required software for a fully automatic installation or using Ghost to further speed-up the installation time.我想到了关于建立一个自订的CD ，不仅是我们所需的软件，一套全自动安装或使用的幽灵，以进一步加速了安装时间。
All my developers love it.我所有的发展商喜欢它。 It gives them more power and flexibility than windows.这给了他们更多的权力和灵活性，比Windows 。 In file & data processing you simply cannot beat Linux command line.在文件和数据处理，你根本无法击败Linux的命令行。
Personally you cannot even pay me to switch back to windows亲自你甚至不能支付我切换回到Windows
Take a look at new Fedora desktop.考虑一下新的Fedora的桌面上。 You will be amazed at the functionality they expose through the UI.您一定会感到惊讶，在他们的揭露功能，通过用户界面。
BTW: The second article your posted is about Mac OS.的BTW ：第二条张贴您的是有关在Mac OS 。

I’m currently working behind the scene with several vendors to preload Linux in their machines.我目前的工作在幕后指挥与多家厂商预压Linux在他们的机器。
I’m supplying the linux expertise needed and link to the linux communities.我提供的Linux所需要的专门知识，并链接到Linux的社区。
They’re very much interested to save loads of money by not paying the Microsoft tax, but unable to do so by :他们很有兴趣，以节省大量的金钱，不支付微软税，但不能这样做：
1. 1 。 user un-friendliness of Linux desktop用户联合国友好的Linux桌面
2. 2 。 threat from Microsoft (losing OEM discount, etc)威胁来自微软（失去的OEM折扣等）
Now, Linux desktop are becoming much more user friendly (thanks ubuntu & gnome - at the moment all of them are looking to preload ubuntu), and they’ve had enough with microsoft and they can’t afford to be the expensive one because their competitors have launched cheaper products due to freedom from microsoft tax.现在， Linux桌面正成为更为用户友好（感谢Ubuntu的＆ GNOME的-目前他们都期待着预紧U buntu的） ，他们已经受够了与微软和他们绝不能成为一个昂贵的，因为他们的竞争对手推出廉价的产品，由于自由从Microsoft税。
2008 will be a VERY interesting (and extremely busy, for me) year. 2008年将是一个非常有趣的（和非常繁忙，对我来说）年。

Judging from the title, it sounded like another “Linux Is Not Ready For the Desktop” thing.从标题，它听起来像是另一种“ Linux是不准备为桌面”的事。 It wasn’t.它不是。
I’m running PCLinuxOS 2007 Final(STRONGLY recommended ), and couldn’t be happier.我运行pclinuxos 2007年的最后（强烈建议 ） ，并不能快乐。 Fast, affordable to the point of free, and both secure and easy to use.速度快，负担得来点免费的，而且双方在安全和易于使用。 Linux (especially with Beryl) is DEFINITELY ready for the desktop, and has been ready for the net (servers, etc) for a long time. Linux的（特别是与绿柱石）肯定是准备面向台式机，并已准备就绪，净（服务器等） ，相当长的时间。 Companies: Don’t waste your money on Microsoft.公司：不要浪费你们的钱放在微软。 Use Linux, and save money not only by eliminating OS fees, but also by being able to use budget computers without losing functionality.使用Linux ，并节省金钱，不仅消除OS的费用，但也能够使用电脑的财政预算案没有丧失功能。
