Operating Systems > Linux and UNIX
Linux = Ugly
Calum:
billy gates, you were doing so well and then all of a sudden yesterday you started posting all that crap - numerous rubbishy pointless posts, why? bad mood or something? just bored?
BG: "Why oh why do i have to put up with this? All my titlebars are blue!!! Why can't it be white like on my mac?"
SOMEBODY: "Why not just change the colour in the control center?"
BG: "I shouldn't have to! It should just know that i want it to be white! Linux is obviously not ready for the desktop yet..."
BG: "When I type a letter, it always comes out using a Lucida font, I really think linux should get its act together and make it a better font, like Arial or Gill."
SOMEBODY: Uh, why not just change the font in the pull down menu?"
BG: Goddamnit! you geeks are always trying to confuse me! I'm not a programmer! Linux is obviously not ready for the desktop yet"
You see what i'm saying?
most of these things you complain about would take a LOT less time to fix than they would to bitch about in a forum.

Gilly its not that linux isnt ready for the desktop, i dont think your ready for linux. but you can learn...
Why do you want all linux to look the same why do you want linux to look like OSX??? i dont think your very much at all ready for the way of the future, so you may aswell stick with your little mac that shows you nothing at all, just plain stupid really. Pretty colours are nice and all but i reckon it just kinda over did it.
to Billy Gates : Stay away from linux till you learn how to use a computer.
Linux has nothing to do with looks. Bare linux has no look, none at all. at its barest you would have to add bash and thats pretty much what linux looks like, and by god it should do aswell.
Do you understand window managers? do you understand the XWindow system? Do you know that looks have nothing to do with how well an OS performs.
Does your Mac hugging mind have a clue how to change a theme preference in a drag down menu?
to me it sounds like you have some kinda brain connection with your mac i mean :

i am interested in this new technology, are you telling me your mac JUST KNOWS WHAT COLOUR YOU WANT? Are you out of your fucking mind?
Why should Linux GUIs have to look like mac anyway? and it could be done but KDE, Gnome and other window managers' devs dont just work there asses off to make a GUI that looks like a fucking Mac i mean give me a break.
God im just ranting on but i cant fucking beleive you. i will continue later

Rubbish! If you had the faintest clue about Macs you wouldn't post this nonsense. At least Billy Gates has a knowledge of both OSes!
PS: Have a look at this and what those people say!
