if a programmer isnt going to get paid for his time, there's not much incentive for him to code something that's top shelf. Firstly, the entire community is completely averse to commerial software. Linux has a few problems that i dont see getting fixed anytime soon. No linux system did this despite the hifalute claims of people churning it out. Infact I found many distributions to suffer like windows from silly lazy problems (I mean cmon mint just fix the damn pdf printer). Before people accuse me of expecting linux to be like windows this is not the case. I then tried crunchbang and that was pretty feeble to, anything I installed had to be launched by me remembering the name of it and it is so minimal in the interface it is bearly useable. on both versions of mint the PDF printer did not work and my mentioning it on the forums got no response, so yea just another joke. The ubuntu based mint had a ridicolously poor performace like ubuntu (aka like Vista is) and the debian based version was not recomended for everyday use infact on a pc that I just use to get the radio on the internet (as the signal is crap for me in my area) it just gave up one day. ![]() Ubuntu is a joke, Mint was a pain in the butt and managed to switch off my laptops wifi permanently and nothing will get it back on, any linux distribution cannot use the inbuilt wireless or the usb dongle. ![]() I'd rather use a system that "just works". Something is screwed there and that does not inspire confidence considering it used to work a treat. Well, I've noticed that KiCAD can be a bit of a pain, things suddenly change or stop working between versions like the editing of fields now seems to be screwed up but it worked before, now editing fields is more long winded than before as you can't just double click on a part reference as that no longer works.
