well, I have converted to Linux.
« on: 3 March 2003, 21:07 »
After much time here reading about the negatives of Microsoft, I decided to give Linux a try. I like to learn new things and I know when I get proficient with Linux, windows is out for good. I used to use DOS, and once I learned how to use windows, DOS was gone for good. I cant tell you much of anything about Linux yet because I am still learning, but it is so refreshing to use something different. I will keep you all updated, if you would like to hear of my travails through Linux Land!  :D  

I am not using Linux now because I cant get my cheap winmodem to work with it. Yet.

Thank you. I didnt switch to Linux out of fear that it would be hard to use, then I realized that I was being an idiot and here I am. ;D

America of the Internet?

Hahahahaha!

Microsoft is more the America of the Internet, if you compare the Patriot Act to the TCPA. Among other things.

Flame on.

Anyway, Congrats with your new Libertian Operating System.  :D

I guess you're right.

I will give up the fight, and sell these Dirty Bombs I made for the intifada warriors to OBL, means I will get some profit out of my hard work.
