PC REBELLION

PC Reb has been experimenting with Linux since 1996 and each distribution of this free operating system is disappointed. Each version was always too complex and required a bit more knowledge that a newcomer could offer. Linux was an unfulfilled promise.

That is until this year.

We first stumbled across Avast Antivirus when we finally got around to installing Windows XP x64 edition to see what mysterious powers we could unleash from our first hot new Athlon 64 processor. Other than support for more memory, it turns out the 64 bit version of XP was more trouble than it was worth - including being incompatible with our perfectly good antivirus software.
