[b][SIZE=2]<span style=\'font-family:arial\'>You're just asking to get a flaming by Linux users saying it's "just like Windows",boss. :lol: Linux is an alternative operating system to Windows.A couple of the more common versions of it to use on a computer are made by Mandrake and Corel (I think they still have their version available,haven't seen much on it lately). Here's what is in the kit: Internal hard disc drive (for PlayStation 2) (HDD) with a 40 GB capacity Network Adaptor (Ethernet) (for PlayStation 2) 10/100 Base-T Ethernet interface Computer Monitor Cable (for PlayStation 2) (with audio connectors) USB Keyboard and Mouse (for PlayStation 2) Linux (for PlayStation 2) version 1.0 software distribution on 2 DVD-ROM Discs This is basically to let you use the PS2 as a computer.It is meant more for the computer hobbyist-it doesn't help in any way regarding games.As you no doubt know by now a hard drive is coming soon for the PS2 for use with games (like Final Fantasy 11,which is due early 2003 if i recall correctly).If you were looking at this kit as a way to get the drive early for compatible PS2 games forget it-once the drive has Linux installed it is no longer useable for the features the games would use it for. You can learn more about the kit via the FAQ at <a href=\'http://playstation2-linux.com/faq.php\' target=\'_blank\'>http://playstation2-linux.com/faq.php</a> .[/b]</span>[/SIZE]
