i am running windows right now -- i was playing carmageddon and mechwarrior 3 on the msn gaming zone
i would have dropped back into mandrake but i wanted to make this point:
fact: linux is more secure than windows, more stable than windows, and more difficult to use than windows.
yes, much harder, especially for a person that had used nothing but windows for years and years... but it is becoming easier and easier, and there is always mac
fact: linux is free, but windows is incredibly expensive
fact: you are lashing out at something that you do not understand. we understand windows. windows is not the problem. it is the company behind it where the bad taste lies.
fact: if a program or OS component is not working the way i need it to under linux, i can refer to the giant and friendly linux user community and go so far as to DEBUG THE PROGRAM. if something breaks windows (pun intended) i have no choice but to pay for tech support, wait for a patch, or uninstall it, even going so far as to format the hard drive if something has gone TERRIBLY wrong.
fact: i am an expert in windows, and a novice in linux.
fact: your website's code is sloppy, the content is worthless--even painful to read. i'm surprised you did not use front page. i can make a much better site with tex alone in about an hour. your image is hijacked, and no one will visit your site... expepting, of course, curious *nix users. i would advise against a guestbook or forum, lest your site become another anti-*nix site overwhelmed by pro-linux statements.
fact: in the face of palladium and tcpa, users and companies are jumping the proverbial ship, and i suppose you could take that as far as to claim that the rats know first.
fact: we support linux because we are a part of it, and it is a part of us--some more than others. consider this: most linux programs are not profitable, will never be profitable, and were never intended to be profitable. they are simply a gift to humanity. we have a major problem with microsoft in thier actions. i do not need to delve into this, this entire forum speaks for me.
fact: you have no real reason to say that unix sucks. the massive linux companies are not leaving bill gates starving in the streets. we are not buying out tech companies to ensure that they never release windows ports of thier software. you have no vested interest in microsoft--no one simply
contributes to the windows operating system. there is no great windows support network (unless you pay). you support microsoft for no reason.
fact: windows just reported an illegal operation in norton
fact: i just got a BSOD
enough with that shit, on to the flame
hey, shit thrower! sign me up for half the monkeys you have left!
x11: warts lol
but to me it looks more like syphallis... they say it gets to your brain
fuck you you fucking fuck. you come around here with your banter and cock-a-doodle-fucking-doo and all you are really doing is looking for justification for your microshaft investment. you like to sit back and watch shit magically come together so no one can crack your password to get at your little boy porn
well pull your dick outta your grannys ass for long enough to realize that we are not here to debate your bullshit
you're not half the man your mommy was, and voidmain forgot more about computers, software, windows, and linux than you ever will know you sniveling little prick
your pathetic attempts at the utilization of what barely passes for the english language are emphasized by your mindless criticisms of others' typos, further indicating you are too busy yanking it with a thumb up your ass over melinda gates nipples to actually compose a coherant logical thought
EVOLVE! that or succomb to darwinian evolutionary theory... fittest thou head in thine rectum you pencil-dicked peter puffer
bah
:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
....ahh that was sweet (lights cigarette)
:cool:
