Linux and ICE
Computing
At ICE, you will always choose which Operating
System you want on your new PC. You can even buy a PC from ICE without
an OS. ICE Computing is proud to feature custom built PC's with the
following Linux Operating Systems:
Ubuntu
(default desktop is GNOME = more like a mac) and Kubuntu (default
desktop is KDE = more like windows) Ubuntu is one of the fastest
growing distros around. Check out the new Ubuntu CE (Christian
Edition), with built-in parental controls and Sword Project
software included.
PCLinuxOS
(Great distro based on Mandriva)
These are great for novice Linux users, and also
are easy to tie into existing Windows networks.
Other Linux / BSD
distributions/builds to consider:
SimplyMepis
(Great tech forum support for Newbies)
Fedora Core (the free version of Red Hat)
Debian
(The basis for a lot of distributions)
Mandriva (both free and
paid versions)
Slackware
(Also the basis for a lot of distributions)
FreeBSD
(the basis for most of the BSD distros. Apple's Mac OSX is based
on FreeBSD)
and about 100 other distros of LInux.
If you need help choosing which Linux
Distribution to use, give this Linux
Distribution Chooser Tool a try.
