The Linux desktop is already here

It doesn't matter if we use Linux in the background, on TV devices, on
mobile phones, etc... The main thing is that we have Windows on our
desktop. Linux has tried to take the desktop but has failed. People don't
want to use that INFERIOR OS that's free and is pure junk.

By the way, I have an android mobile phone and love it. Keep trying with
your dying campaign to try to get people to switch. People are smarter than
that.

Live with it.

People who don't know enough to shut the switch off when their gas pedal
sticks probably couldn't run Linux.

Rather contrived I thought. You might as well say that we are all main
frame users because we get money from an ATM and the bank's central
computer may well be running some archaic IBM operating system :)

Also true. The uncontrived part is that major OEMs like Dell and
computer chains in Europe are selling desktops with Linux installed. On
net books, it holds 32% of the market. Linux isn't just for geeks anymore.

No, it hasn't. More people are using Linux than ever before.

You, sir, are a liar.

No, you are dumber than most and you think that you can lie here and
people will believe you. The only one that does is Frank. Nice company
you keep.

You're the one who has to live with the karma you create by lying over
and over again, chum, not me.

Who gives a RATS ASS? If you want to use Linux on the desktop then use it.
If you want to use Windows on the desktop then use it. The issue at hand is
that you constantly badger people here trying to get them to switch to that
INFERIOR Ubuntu.

It ain't going to work in this forum. Why don't you go and peddle that
shitty Ubuntu in alt.sheepfuckers.org?

You do or you wouldn't read the post, much less reply to it.

Gosh, I am so pleased that I have your permission.

False. I am encouraging people to try it. I use Windows and Ubuntu so if
I haven't "switched", where do you get off by saying I suggest people
switch?

So third grade but expected.

Sorry sheep-fucker, but I don't use google, only bing and I don't
facebook or twitter.
You're foaming at the mouth again over the overwhelming success of
Windows 7 and it has made you desperate.
Too bad sluggo, but you'll just have to live with it.
Oops!...LOL!

However the fact that OEM's sell a specific operating system is simply
a matter of sales strategy. Sell Windows Boxes for $XX and Linux Boxes
for a couple of hundred less. Cover all bases.

I was in Tesco the other day and almost all of the computers they had
on sale were Liinux machines. Why? Because they are the best box you
can buy? Because Tesco somehow has a relationship with Linus? Or
simply because Tesco sells cheap and Linux is cheaper.

For those who care: All the machines were equipped with Ubuntu.
