piratePenguin:
And just incase anyone else brings it up: I try hard to avoid using non-free software on my computer, and otherwise-supporting non-free software and their developers. That severely limits my choice of operating system, web-browser, etc., and it means that I won't always base my choice of software on "does a better job" or anything like that. I'll put licence before basically everything else, when I can.
So, even if Opera really, undoubtably, beats the living shit out of Mozilla, I'll try hard not to use or otherwise-support Opera so long as it isn't free. I don't think that makes me weak. Infact, quite the opposite. But I'd say that anyhow.
I don't do this because I'm holding out for Utopia. I do it because I like the smell of the air in Utopia.

The reason why I got rid of Slackware is because I just wasn't using it enough, and I need that extra space for data.
I've already tried Windows XP on this machine, and it's a pile of shit IMO, whereas with Windows 2000 it runs fine without me having to waste my fucking time making it "steel-walled" :rolleyes:
I'm not trying to justify my reasons for using Windows, but I try my best to use all the free software I can on Windows (and by free I mean open source). :)

Using M$ products often involves eating a bit of shit here and there ... or a lot of it in some cases (Vista, XBOX 360)

Well, you were making an assumption that most people who use Windows are stupid, and I fit into that category who use Windows? :rolleyes:
