that's a cute set of excuses you have there. keep working on it and you can
probably find a way to blame global warming, the ozone layer and sunspot
activity on the unorganized mess called desktop linux.

big deal. one day the earth, the sun and the universe will also die. but
neither the sun nor microsoft is going anywhere in the immediate future.

was this supposed to prove something? so gm basically failed and so did a
bunch of other companies. is this somehow proof that microsoft is also going
to fail in the foreseeable future. since gm failed let's extrapolate this
and declare that redhat, ibm and google are also destined to fail.

You mean like WPA and WGA? Or are you referring to the dumbed down
Windows Media Player that is riddled with DRM? Most home users can get
more than what they want with Linux.

When you hold ALL your customers in total disdain and make them prove
over and over and over again that they aren't thieves, your business

Extremadura isn't a country. Get this man an atlas so he can educated

Ubuntu has been free for years yet hasn't taken over lead on the desktop.
The above statement is FACT you IDIOT.

You just wish that people would embrace Ubuntu but they don't. Ubuntu
doesn't run the popular software programs out there. People also don't
want to learn cryptic commands to get that shitty Ubuntu to do anything.
Oops.

Yea. If they use Ubuntu, most people would get more than they bargained
for. They would get trouble. Ubuntu is shit for a reason. It doesn't work
with most popular applications or web sites. Oops.

Its really quite sad that you, a grown man, feels the need to come into
the Vista & Windows 7 ng's and make a complete and utter fool out of
yourself on a daily basis.
Actually its quite pathetic and points to a rather deep rooted psychosis
you must suffer from.
