Compare
Phoenix Linux with Elementary OS
For
me Phoenix Linux has the club mentality of Linux, not the business
mentality of Redhat.
Phoenix
Linux is called CUB, as of puppies.
I
love Puppy Linux and dogs and my affection for Phoenix Linux is
similar.
All
stray dogs are my love.
Whereas
Elementary Os is like a pedigree dog, expensive from the day you
bring it home with hereditary diseases
or bug fixes in case of elementary.
Phoenix
Linux is at home with you from the first live session with almost all
the utilities one needs in a Light Weight Distribution.
One
has to purchase every little free software from elementary not free
at all.
It entices you with a beautiful front end and the back end is
empty if one does not pay.
I
am not against proprietary Redhat and Suse Linux which do yeoman
service to server community.
What
an average user wants is a functional Linux at first boot up.
It is
OK for guy like me retired and have plenty of time to kill.
Young
guys need not waste time on configuring and testing a teasing Linux
distribution.
Thumbs
up for Phoenix Linux which has Abiword (I am writing this in a live
session) and thumbs down for elementary which has no functionality at
boot up.
Any
distribution which has no torrent file is not worth downloading and
testing.
It
takes ages to download from point to point (not in my case).
I
pay a high bill to my service provider, Sri-Lankan Telecoms and guys
are very nice.
After
series of lightening both the router and hard drive went down
(burnt).
TV
too, was hit and all are in working condition now.
The
lightening hits the gadgets well before the trip
switch goes off.
Take
care even indoors during this stormy season.
I
hope elementary Linux get an electric shock reading this comment.
Unfortunately Distrowatch is also part of this money game and won’t
let my honest comment published.
So read the stuff here and not at Distrowatch!
