Is there anyone out there who actually likes M$?
Calum:
aha! are you used to the amiga?
and why are you only used to M$? why not getused to something else? you took the time to "get used" to M$' shitty product, now don't make the mistake that zombie4687486486486 has made and sentence yourself to a life of blinkeredness. Don't get me wrong, if linux took a wrong turn and i didn't like it anymore, and if there was some other OS i fancied, i would be there like a flash, i am no linux fanatic... Actually i hope to try BSD soon, and i tried to install BeOS recently, but it seems the CD i have is not bootable by a ix86 computer, maybe only by a mac?
I digress, my point is, don't let the past dictate the future!
Master of Reality:
even i have gotten used to a great number of computers.

the more time you spend using windows the harder it will be to start thinking logically again.
You start to "think" alike with windows, therefore you start to learn to think inanely, like looking for you pet cat in a freezer, or looking for water to drink in your coat pocket (similar to looking for file name extensions in the "folder view" options).
I still like the commodore, isnt there a unix-like OS for the commodore? is it Lunix?

No, I don't believe Linux has yet been ported to C64. I don't think they can quite get the kernel trimmed down that small. Maybe if you added about 8MB of RAM (or at least ROM) then you could get it to work. But then it would be called a C8192.

Ahhh, I misread your post. I saw "Linux" when in fact you said "Lunix". Not even close to the same thing. Sorry about that. You could put chatroom.fuckmicrosoft.com on your C64.
