So, I’ve been thinking these past few hours.

I’m going back to using purely Linux.

What makes me decided to do this is the fact that my last few posts was about upgrading hardware, mostly for gaming. It is not a bad thing, of course, it’s just that I’ve been playing games too much that my campus assignment was a bit neglected.

Besides, upgrading hardware for pc games will be a never ending circle. You buy a 4850 today, you will find something stronger in a short time. Hardware upgrading costs quite an amount of money, so I don’t think everyone will be able to follow it. I will keep following hardware development, of course, so this blog will keep on running.

What about my upgrade marathon plan?

I’ll continue it. But now, instead of focusing in performance, the upgrade will focus in functionality (e.g. Larger hard drive, etc.).

My Linux distribution of choice is, unexpectedly, Mandriva. I was a happy OpenSuse user for quite a while, but the latest release somehow dissapoint me, so I’m moving. Why not Ubuntu? Simple, I hate it.

Now I’m curently downloading Mandriva’s latest release, 2009. Hopefully it will be done in the morning.
