All Things Microsoft > Microsoft Software

Hmm.. 'What's so bad about Windows XP?'

A large portion of us hate Microsoft because their software is shit. Another large portion of us hate M$ for their fucked-up business practices. For most of us though, its BOTH.

What's so bad about WinXP?  Hmmmm, that's a tough one.  It's what finally pushed me to Linux.  Oh, wait, check out this poor bastard's lament from the WindowsBBS site.

Yeah I still go there, occasionally try to give assistance, but mostly laugh at the poor lost windroids still stuck in windows hell. And since my advice is generally fixing Windows from DOS, I get a whole lot of "huh?'s" and "what?'s" and etc.

Poor lost little "point and clickers"....

My lord. I have never EVER had that sort of lack of control with my Mac in my entire life!

Come to think of it, now that I have been running my RedHat PC for a few weeks, i have never felt more IN controll.

Win98SE has fucked up over and over and over and over, and it's a reletively clean install. Pathetic...

Why can't Apple just make OS's, the world would be a much better place if all computers could run OSX and Darwin.

I don't see what's wrong with my Windows XP Professional.  I've tweaked it and removed all spyware.  It *never* crashes on its own.  It is either some fault of my own or another program that crashes.  A fresh boot of Windows XP leaves a memory footprint of about 56000 KB.

So what's so bad about Windows XP?  I don't want to hear about what's so bad about Microsoft.

If you dont think something is wrong, then why are you here?

If i bought a new stero, and i liked it. it's great with no problem. would i go out and find a website where people dont like it and tell them that mine is good and what's wrong with mine? I wouldn't. perhaps that's because i have more common sense than you, or perhaps you just need to find something to fulfill your lack of life by coming here.

I'm not meaning to insult you, i'm just trying to understand.
