However was this not stated AFTER Win7 came out? Well DUH, what would
you expect him to say? Of course he is going to tell people Vista isn't
good but to buy their NEW OS. That's how he gets paid. Every time some
company puts out a new version of something they will talk down the old
version and push the new version because they want to sell copies!

You're such a tool! What happened, UBooBoo laid you off from their marketing
team, due to the lack of support, money, shitty OS, and bad rep? Or did you
finally run out of Hash, and now realized how bad that UBooBoo OS is...

But I see you still can't resist the bait being trolled through the

I sense you've never been to Catalina Island, otherwise you wouldn't be

Or are you simply up to your old tricks of insulting others family

No I'm afraid that you are trying to gloss over the truth.

Remember how you shouted and raved about the "second coming" and
extolled Ubunut to the heavens?

And now, after release of this paragon of operating systems you
abruptly turn your back on it after only days of use and announce that
you have found a new savour MINT, which you are now adoring.

A rather fickle lover one might say. Can't make up your mind, wavering
from pillar to post.

You really do have a unique ability to misunderstand, don't you.

The discussion is not about Unux, Mint or Windows 7. It is about Alias
and why he has now changed his preference from the once much bragged
upon Ubuntu to another, rather ho hum, operating system.

My comment was "why" and I added that I could understand a jump to one
of either the more advanced versions or to one of the more
traditional, and stable, versions, but didn't understand your
selection of just another "for the masses" version, essentially more
of the same operating system?

And what is somewhat of a give away is your deliberate (I assume)
misunderstanding of the question, thus your comment to take it tot the
Mint or Ubuntu groups.

I'm sticking with Mac and Linux. I'm done with Microsoft.
three year old 802.11 chipsets that don't work under 7? Screw that.
Cliff Notes: Three year old Gateway laptop, wifi works fine without WPA2
encryption. As soon as it is enabled - nothing.
Installed Ubuntu on the same machine - worked like a champ.
