          This is just propaganda. Unproffesional mud slinging. Ever notice that the Linux community focuses on bashing Windows rather than touting Linux's features and benefits? A good example of this is at www.slashdot.org. If the Linux community wants me to switch from Windows to Linux, then this is not the way to do it. This type of unprofessionalism only strengthens my support for Windows.

              The problem is, most of the so called Linux zealots don't know the "advantages" and find it easier to parrot things like Windoze sux, BSOD, Linux roolz, BSOD, Tux rox, BSOD, Windoze is not secure, BSOD, Windoze is buggy, BSOD, M$, BSOD, etc.

                                  Actually, I've installed Linux on an old PC of mine recently just to try it. My first "attempt" was Debian. I tried installing the desktop on it and the installer crashed half way through. On top of that, the crash prevented me from logging in as root. I eventially got it working again, but it took a couple phone calls. My second "attempt" was Red Hat which I installed recently on a different PC of mine. The OS install program crashed on me once too. Hmmm... all of this talk about Linux being more secure and stable than MS Windows sounds like BS to me. I don't know. Maybe I was just unlucky?

                                        The problem is, most of the so called Linux zealots don't know the "advantages" and find it easier to parrot things like Windoze sux, BSOD, Linux roolz, BSOD, Tux rox, BSOD, Windoze is not secure, BSOD, Windoze is buggy, BSOD, M$, BSOD, etc.

                                        £inux! Why should Microsoft have all the fun! This Lindows company is just trying to bank off of our fears anyways. So, lets share the love. Take that Linux! ;P (I used ALT-0163 to make the English pound. Did it work?)
