Let's make a list of why Windows sucks
Lead Head:
no...not when you have 256MB of ram or over, but it does piss me off when i minimize counter strike source or something and it unloads the 400MB or so of textures from the system ram/graphics memory into the HD, sure it gives me back 400MB of working system ram, but as soon as i maximize it back up, it sits there for 15-20sec loading the textures back into memory...
(it is not a not enough memory related problem, its a stupid windows wants to transfer all data from minimized apps from system ram to the HD until they are maximized again problem)
hm_murdock:
What about the occasional obsession it has with grinding the HD for upwards of an hour or more, for no good reason. XP would do that to me quite often. With Indexing Service disabled, it still did it. With System Restore disabled, it still did it.
Who the fuck knows what it might be.

- If one could visualize the Window$ kernel it would look like a large, bloated piece of swiss cheeze with butter or diarrhea plugging up the holes (whichever you prefer to imagine)
- It's not case sensitive
- NTFS is shit
- I comes pre-installed 99.9 % of the time
- There is no shell worth mentioning
- It's slow, bloated, vaporwear, bullshit and more
- The EULA blows goats
- The installer is shitty
- It does things behind your back (like indexing all your files by default)
- you are the admin by default
- it is more than insecure ... it defines insecurity
- It will eventually fuck up your computer from all the bullshit (there have been cases haven't there ?)
- it lacks innovation
- it is the product of a monopolistic evil empire run by Bill Gate$ (what could be worse than that ... a monopolistic evil empire run by :eek: :eek: Steve Ballmer :eek: :eek: )
- it's not open-source (unless you count the leakage)
- it's overflowing with bullshit
- it not only hogs all your resources but manages to waste them too and does a piss poor job of managing them
- anything is better than it
- it is worse than nothing
- why not make a list of good things about Window$ it would be shorter ... much much shorter
- etc. etc. and so on ... I could probably write all day, but I just don't care to
piratePenguin:
* It only supports SMB shares. GNOME (nautilus) can connect to at least FTP, SMB, SSH, webdav (and webdav secure) and presumably NFS. KDE (Konqueror) probably supports a similar range, same with OS X. But not windows.
It's just the shittest OS out there plain and simple.
