This group should be renamed comp.os.microsoft.paranoia because for the
most part, that is a good description of the discussions.
It's like a feeding frenzy of sharks in this group.
Tell me, honestly, what would you all be discussing if Vista never
happened?
How Linux is overtaking over Microsoft Windows as the world standard
desktop operating system?
How OpenOffice is overtaking Microsoft Office?
How there is no need for AutoCad or Catia?
How you have more choice of hardware with Linux, as long as it's an Nvidia
video card anyway.
IOW the same stale old lies that are propagated by the same three people
over and over again.
You can't possibly get any more mileage out of those half truths now can
you?
Then again you all sit in a circle, all 3 of you, and play telephone.
Roy Schestowitz "isn't Linux great?"
Mark Kent "Yes it is Roy"
William Poaster " Me Too I filter that.".
Roy "It's much better than that nasty Windows"
Mark Kent "Yes it is Roy"
William Poaster " Me Too I filter that.".
Roy " Bill Gates is a criminal"
Mark Kent "Yes it is Roy"
William Poaster " Me Too I filter that.".
Roy " Have you seen my blog?"
Mark Kent "Yes it is Roy"
William Poaster " Me Too. I filter that.".
etc......
So what would you do if there was no Vista?
This group is so far out of touch with reality that it is scary.
Face it, Vista is everywhere.
The stores are jammed with people buying Vista, hardware upgrades, systems
with Vista and so forth.
Linux?
It can't even be located.
Better send out an Amber Alert...........
Linux is MIA.........
.....as if that's anything new.
Linux has been MIA for more than 10 years.
What can be said about something that is given away for free and can't
even put a dent in Microsoft's desktop market.
I'll tell you what can be said: People don't want Linux.
People have ignored Linux because Linux doesn't offer them anything new or
better than what they have now but Linux does have the potential to screw
up their systems.
So let the feeding frenzy continue.
Take the frenzy outside the comfort of comp.os.linux.advocacy and the nice
men in white jackets would be coming after most of you.
IOW people would be laughing at you.
Something along the lines of:
Linux?
WTF is Linux?
Never heard of it.
Can it run Halo?
You may now return to your paranoia.
