Sonork: 100:11179 "If you're Master Chief and you're facing the Flood, grab a shotgun and save the last checkpoint" - Me, cause I was boredActually, 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?

He has many words to tell us what Microsoft will do, quite some to tell us what they could, and just a few what they actually do.

Joshua Quick wrote: Maybe I was just unlucky? Nope, I've seen this alot, and my roomate is trying to install linux on a machine right now but if its not one problem its another. I guess what they mean by stable is if you get it running (big if) and don't really touch it and let the uptime clock run and nothing more its stable ;P Matt Newman

Jesse Evans wrote: I did not mean to imply you, personally, were. Yeah, I figured you probably just picked the last reply. Jesse Evans wrote: Anyway, I guess your implication is that the fellow's problem was user error? my implication is that I didn't bother reading so far. Seriously, this guy has a healthy paranoia. And seeing Microsoft as the Worst Devil Possible is just naive. Jesse Evans wrote: M$ Watch this: $un Ha! ;P
