Where windows leaves off ALSA  Adavanced Linux Sound Architecure takes over and totally lets one cofigure  the box for which ever sound brd or brds..  Drivers are installed for the partiular sound brd.This is the ALSA mixer which gives total mixing control to any sound brd altough one can install a mixer for any particular brd Note the scroll bar on the bottom

A tool called jack works with progams like ardour which is similar to sonar or cep and lets one patch any way possible for any configuration.

With xmms (the eqivalent to winamp) and a delta 44 it is absolutely the cleanest sound I have ever heard out of any box..

I am getting tempted, but initially I feel I want to run
Linux with a windows emulator.
I like some of the windows software
and since windows would be running on top of Linux,
(without all those unnecessary services)
It would be far more stable.

I'm researching that angle myself, Jerry!

Local guy here has built a Serious Linux software, and promises a good emulation. He hasn't posted on the site I go to where I met him lately... but I'll keep looking!

I know Karaoker uses Wine which sounds ok.
I am quite excited about a prog called Win4Lin.
You install it on Linux.
Then you load the complete windows, any version.
You can then load your usual apps like Office etc.
No microsoft services running, and obviously its as stable as Linux.
Seems like the best of both worlds.

I have used win4lin. It is OK, but "no microsoft services" is not correct. It is just running Windows in emulation -- in fact, you have to have a complete version of Windows to run it.

Jerry I had the same initial thoughts about converting from windows but as I become more aquainted with linux Im shying away from the windows stuff that I have put out lotsa money for.. (including Codeweaver)

Actually I use codeweaver At first I was installing alot of windows stuff like cutefp3 and it was working fine but discovered  FileZilla which is better yet.. Im playing with bluefish for a web editor but after many many hours with hotdog its going to take a long time to shift... I still use firefox which is one of the pkgd browsers that come with the distro...  And the new kernels support most of the wireless devices With this Im running the Belkin dongo and working fine..

It's doing my head in at the moment.
The more I read, the more confused I get.
I read that you install the complete windows software,
but then not all windows apps run.

Then VMWare is highly rated but seems to run its own
platform alongside Linux.

Linsphire seems to be well recomended at the moment. Not free...

I,ve got a breakdown booked in 30 mins.
