There you go lying again. With Windows 7, all you need to do in hook up
your pirnter (most printers) and the driver installs instantly. You don't
know very much about Windows 7 so you lie constantly. Stick with that
crappy Ubuntu and continue to use the cryptic line commands to get most
things done. Then GIMP along with that INFERIOR Open Sores program that is
about 10 years behind the times.
No wonder Ubuntu is on so few machines. It's pure crap.
