Comment Re:Optical? (Score 2) 502

I live in Finland and i had unlimited and non-restricted 10/10 Mbit/s connection first time in year 2001, sure we had slower DSL connections before that too. Cost was around 40e/month. Currenlty i have unlimited, non-restricted (yes, i can run servers if i like) 100/100 Mbit/s connection for 30e/month. I also have optic fiber cable in my 1975 build flat, but i currently have no use for that. I also have unlimited 3G mobile broadband (two actually) that cost's less than 10 euros/month they transfer around 2-6Mbit/s. What i have heard is that in US connection are capped, unreliable and slow. Maybe you should visit Europe someday.

I moved to openSUSE two years ago after official Kubuntu relaeases started to be so broken that you could not use bluetooth for example. openSUSE is very polished and i can recommend it. For servers and other similar systems i would choose Debian. Generally, issues i have had lately with Linux distributions are non-working graphics drivers. I have two laptops with Sandybridge and other keeps crashing X, other shows black screen from boot. Also laptops with two graphics cards are now causing big problems but tweaking with Bumblebee should help (until you upgrade...).
