Microsoft Bollocks XP

[hm_murdock]

I finally just stopped using Windows altogether. I haven't turned on my peecee in EIGHT MONTHS... and the mobo battery died. Now it won't boot. HAHA.

Windows sux. I remember having to do shit like update it with Windows Update, reboot to a blue screen. Reinstall.

Fuck that shit.

I remember AOL replacing AIM with that new version of theirs.

Fuck that shit.

I remember the last year of Windows... 2005. I just couldn't take it anymore. A 300MHz Power Mac G3 was way better than my cushy Windoze box, so fuck it. I didn't want to look at the bullshit anymore, so I just totally jumped ship. Forever. Who needs Bill's shitty OS? If I need to run Office, I still can. I DON'T, THOUGH. I don't need to run stupid Windows games. I don't need to run bullshit. Anything I need done that requires Windows, well, I can get one of my Windows using sucker friends to do.

Windows chaps my ass.

Start buttons. My Computer. Genuine Advantage. Eat my pubes, Windows.

Get OS X onto that box.

wait....




Seriously, get Ubuntu onto that box. And ditch the Mac :p

As long as it's not Window$ running anything else should do just fine ... I don't personally like Macs, but they're not bad ... if you like em use em.

This all sounds odd, Jimmy.  There was a time when you considered Windows to be not bad at all, and you were bashing OS X as slow and buggy.  What's more, you liked Linux and used it much of the time, on your PC.  Why would you all of a sudden not have your PC on for eight months?

[hm_murdock]

The time I complained of slow and buggy OS X was 10.2. It's reached the point that I no longer think that it's "not good enough" for me to use all the time. As for why my opinion of Windows changed... after years of using consumer-level Apple hardware, I got a Power Mac again :p

Ya know, dual 500MHz G4 and a Radeon 8500 really do make for a better experience than a G3 with Rage 128.

And Linux? I'm still messing with it. I'm playing with Ubuntu right now. Well, not this exact moment...

As much as I think you're awesome Jimmy, that is not the case.

[OFFTOPIC]Is it just me, or does the search system here suck?  I had to find this post manually - no search terms could find it.[/OFFTOPIC]

I have to agree, I remember when "teh Jimmy" used to have outbursts like "If you don't like XP then fuck you you ass hat, don't fucking use it. Let's face it, XP is not a bad OS and with SP1 (remember those days) a lot of traditional windowz problems have gone away."

Wow, it's strange to hear one of the only "Windows Advocates come around!!!!


I missed you JIMMY!


How's Sammi? And, BritishChick sez "awight mate"

[WMD]

I much preferred his ranting on topics other than Windows.  Or computers, for that matter.  Like, referring to a user as "ASSMASTER" and insisting everyone else do so.  Ah, I still love that.

[hm_murdock]

Oh, don't you worry... there's plenty of that to go around. I could write a book about restaurant customers.

Peoples opinions change over time? Mine do. I would imagine others do as well.

[hm_murdock]

That seems like a good answer to the question.

[pofnlice]

I think bill just stopped sending him a check.

[WMD]

If Bill was sending Jimmy checks, I don't think he'd be using a 300MHz G3 or a 1GHz Pentium 3.

Please, do tell!
