I'm using Linux right now as I type this with my forehead. What, you think I'd actually be able to type properly with my hands? I'm testing websites with Konqueror and Mozilla to see which ones have got more porn and popups; it's quite fun if you know what I mean. I also did a kindergarten project on Linux where I used it solely for over a minute... how else would I know it sucked? If I were a competent programmer or could at least write I could make Linux 6 squillion times better than Windows but those geeks don't listen to me for some reason or are too afraid of making it usable by normal people; they want it that way so they can feel better about themselves that they use an operating system that requires the reading of some words just to figure it out. I cry when one of them tells me I should learn to read, I am just too dumb! Computers should appeal to the dumbest people and that's why I like using Windows! The Linux geeks also cry out whenever anyone mentions standardizing Linux as if they are facists or something.. They are all against faces, that kind of bullshit is why Linux will fail. It's because Only geeks use it nar nar nar, you are all geeks and you suck. Poo! ha ha! "Choice" is never good and the fools (that's those damn geeks who know how to read again) let it get in the way of the greater good that could be achieved. I mean, my dream is for a computer operating system that you wouldn't even need to use. You would just switch on the machine, and get instant porn.
I'm sure reading a "HOW-TO" page is your idea of fun but I have better things to do with my time, huh huh huh! And it just serves to prove how counter- intuitive the Linux system actually is. It is a hodgepodge of often redundant, broken, and badly-interworking applications and tools that is a nightmare to navigate. No wait a minute, isn't that something else? Not only that, but many of them are quite useless. How can you say Windows XP is bloated in any way when it comes with no programs to speak of and then scarfs up several Gb of your hard disk space? At the same time you see no problem with Red Hat Linux containing an applet (using up several precious kilobytes I am sure!!!!!) that puts a cartoon fish on your desktop, whose purpose, according to the "about" section is "to waste system resources?" I mean? It's not as if programmers are allowed to have a sense of humor! God knows I don't!
Some people may like how Linux works, but I'd prefer not to develop carpet munching syndrome typing some words on a computer just to change something (computers are just for games aren't they?).
Arrgh, see what I mean by "badly grammarring?" I can't even copy and paste this writing of spelling with not looking in a dictionary first! My brain hurts! And the font rendering seems to be completely over my head! I like windows because it always crashes before I get to start typing, so I never have that problem.
