Great thread ... Quick question - for those of you who deployed Ubuntu for your home - ( i have played with it at work, indeed like a toy) ... does it have availability of most applications that teenagers would like? .... itunes support? etc.... My son's Apple G4 is a victim of logic board issues and soldering bad design - I want to just suck the info out into our NAS drive and just get a cheap laptop - wondering what linux version would be a good one to deploy for home use .. any thoughts esp vis a vis mp3 support would be greatly appreciated ..
There's not a huge difference among linux distros in the applications that are available if you track them down. Most won't include anything with patented or even questionable functionality in the base distro. Fedora won't publically admit that such stuff exists. Ubuntu has it in repositories that easily be enabled. There are several media players around but I don't think any will play drm-affected AAC files from the itunes store and playlist management probably won't quite match itunes.
