Again, you quoted everything I said and only give me a very short reply,
completely unrelated to the important things.

No need to try and make me look like a fool. I am not asking for any
advices about this and I do not have a good reason to tell you whether I
have a NAT router between my home network and the outside. It is
completely unrelated to our discussion.

The discussion is about security. Connect the dots. For YOUR sake, I
hope you use a router. I already do If you don't like the way I
reply or the content, kill file me.

I am sure you realize that the way you write things can be insulting to
the reader.
I am not ignorant to the importance of using one, but thank you for your
consideration.

That is the way Alias is. He can't backup any statement with fact. When
you call him on anything, he gets agitated and says to killfile him. He is
a garden variety troll with his main goal of trying to convert everyone to
that INFERIOR Ubuntu that the majority of people dislike.

Imagine, a FREE OS that has been FREE for years, yet Ubuntu is still on very
few desktop machines. That should tell you all you need to know about it.

Thanks Ray. I did the deed any this comes to you from, dare I say it?
Ubuntu. So far all is well. Even found the software to run my weather
station. Got a lot of work ahead to get it all sorted out and running my
way.

It's way easier than a lot of folks would like you to believe. Glad
you're having a good experience.

Ah Jackie, you are learning about Alias. He posts some unsupported
slander about Windows and when someone rebuts his post complete with
quotes and references to demonstrate validity he replies with
irrelevancies.

Given that Alias seems to know very little about computers, witness
his assertion that the Windows kernel is the Registry and that a
certain compilation of Linux is a version based on the desktop
environment, it seems likely that he is one of these "instant
experts", that finally learned enough to turn the computer on and off
and now portrays himself as the all knowing pundit.

I don't believe that is a valid statement. Certainly you - the Linux
Advocate - are less savvy then any number of others posting in this
group - your foolish statement that the Windows kernel is the Registry
and your more recent one about a version of Linux being "built on"
Gnome, the desktop environment, certainly indicates that you have
little knowledge of either system.

If your assertions are correct I wonder about the various firewalls
that have been built for Linux? Not necessary as the system is bullet
proof? Gee, I wonder why those stupid Linux coders made them?

I wonder is perhaps, rather then waving your hands in the air and
repeating your mantra "Linux is wonderful, wonderful, wonderful" you
might like to address my comments in some detail?

It would be nice if he could actually try to back anything he says up
even he doesn't have any reliable references, because it really is like
you say. Technical details would be good so that we can see if it even
sounds logical or not.

OR, you could do your own research and see if what I am saying is true.
What is it about you Windows users that makes you think everyone has to
prove to you what they say is true?

You're a Windows user, dumbass.

Tell them how you make $14,000 /week.
That will give you at least a little credibility.

That ubuntu is based on gnome was hilarious.

Unfortunately, this is getting a bit ridiculous.
Facts are either true or false. I have said my part on why I believe
what I believe. I don't feel that you have contributed much.
If you feel that I am wrong, please enlighten me. If you don't want to
bother convincing me and other people on why we are wrong, I suggest we
stop talking about this because the conversation is already starting to
become meaningless.
If you have read my previous posts, does it really sound like I need to
"do my own research"? What part of what you *you* say sounds even
slightly convincing?
You can believe whatever you want to believe, but if you do not have any
intention on enlightening us, let's end this conversation right now.

Regardless of any proof I may give, you and John won't believe me anyway
so what's the point?

If I have to prove that Windows is vulnerable to malware and Linux is
much more secure to you guys, then doing so is a futile endeavor and I'm
not into futile endeavors.

So are you. I have stated many times that I use both. So fucking what?

You really are desperate to find *something* to put me down with, why is

There is no point in any conversation you participate in.
It's just Windows bashing, ubuntushitsthebed promoting, plain and
simple.
