By the way what's the chance of you loosing your work because a virus fucks the OS up whether it be Windows or Linux?
As I said earlier, fuck the OS it's my work I want to save. My time is more important than the OS or the computer I work on - it can't be bought back.
muzzy:
So why do you come to an Anti Microsoft forum to talk Pro Microsoft? There is no logic in that, you keep repeating yourself, with redundant things.
Well, since you probably reduce everything what I say to "Pro Microsoft", it might seem repetitive. By same logic I could reduce everything you guys say to "Anti Microsoft", and it'd seem quite repetitive as well :)
Linux is nothing, its just a fucking kernel
Yet, people compare it to a complete Windows installation. If Linux kernel were to be compared to Windows NT Native kernel (i.e. the thing below the win32 executive subsystem), you'd notice windows kernel isn't that bad at all.
there are also different ways you can set Linux up, that is just as, and often a lot more secure then a Windows set up.
Unfortunately true. A lot of windows users don't know enough about the system to set it up properly, and since the config is braindead by default, the system will suck unless the user knows what to do.
I hate proprietary software in general.
A lot of time I hate proprietary software, too. I tried to ask Khaled to implement a feature in mirc I wanted and which really wouldn't been such a big thing (ability to remove icons from switchbar buttons). Well, he didn't want to, and didn't give me permission to do it myself. Why the heck not? I'm not supposed to do such changes to software I have paid for? According to EU intellectual property laws, however, fixing bugs yourself is ok. So, I just decide everything I don't like is a bug, and patch away. Can't wait to get sued someday for doing it.
