Rep Power: 6 | 1. Yes, Ubuntu supports Wireless Connections. 2. You cannot use Ubuntu without installing. But you can try it using Live CD feature. If you have Windows OS installed, then you can use an application called Wubi to install and use Ubuntu like any other Windows software. And uninstall if you don't need it. |

Rep Power: 6 | There are lots of medium quality 3d games for Linux. But most of them are Online games. The quality is between Delta Force: Task Force Dagger & Half-Life 1st. Last edited by Archer; 01-17-09 at 11:22 PM. |
