EDA on linux is fast than winXP ??

[anto2]

personally i use windows xp professional and suse linux 9.1 professional ona dual boot machine and i have to say that windows does seem to be just that much faster, when comparing kde to the windows desktop in terms of resizing and moving items windows does seem to be more responsive. now i have to admit that i dont have nvidia drivers installed yet on suse (problem with online update, installed everything else but the drivers) which shouldn't make any huge difference. also i must add that even starting applications is slower than in linux. also installing applications is a lot easier,, so is customization, ... dont get me wrong i'm a huge fan of linux but it just isn't up the the standard of windows yet in terms of user friendlyness

The key point is that there are so many powerful tools under Unix/Linux which can improve your work efficiency a lot. Also, most of the time, you are not runing a single job.
