Editor's Note: Users Are Not As Stupid as the FUDsters Say

,----[ Quote ]
| Some of the grumpiness comes from the endless torrents of anti-Linux FUD, 
| propaganda, misinformation, astroturfing, and just plain whining that keep 
| pounding on the same theme: that Windows is easy, Linux is hard, and 
| expecting computer users to spend more than eight or fifteen seconds in study 
| is a sin. It has never been true that learning to use a personal computer is 
| easy; that is a plain lie. Conversely, it's not that hard.

Ballmer's presentation shows very clearly that Linux is bigger than Apple on
the desktop.

Ubuntu Linux is Much Better than Windows

,----[ Quote ]
| I have worked with Ubuntu Linux for about 2 months and find that Ubuntu is
| much better than Windows. My computer is Thinkpad T43 laptop. The reasons
| that Ubuntu is better are:
|
| Wireless network supported. My laptop's wireless network card is Intel
| PRO/Wireless 2200BG. After booting from Ubuntu live CD, the wireless network
| is usable. Even you can install Ubuntu and surf the Internet at the same
| time. However, Windows XP doesn't support the wireless network adapter. So I
| have to download the driver from other computer and copy it to my laptop.
| Obviously, it is dirty work.
