Could it possibly be that it's become more popular since then? Considering that Linux is not mass media advertised like Windows and Mac, it most certainly has come and is going a long way. Let me ask you a question, who in the **** cares about what you're talking about? |

Funny, the Wiki leaks just came out and verified that there were WMD in Iraq and they were enearthed as late as 2008. The problem being most people don't see WMDs as anything but bombs. bdog |

Linux has less than one percent of the desktops. Most people reject Linux
as a TOY OS for geeks who can't get laid. Plain and simple. If you want to do real work, get a real OS. Windows 7 is a real OS. "Quantum Leaper" wrote in message ...

The important thing to remember is that Linux is just an annoyance to most
people. Imagine, Linux is FREE yet most reject it. People would rather pay for Windows than use that ****TY Linux/Ubuntu crap that they throw out there. Get a ****ing life.

Web stats are not reliable because they only monitor certain sites, not the entire web. They only report global usage and never do it by country. Again, if you were to take the USA out of the picture, Linux usage would be much higher. Also, for example, if you monitor msn.com and don't monitor ubuntu.com, you have skewered stats. I would bet that idealista.com isn't monitored even though it's one of the most popular sites in Spain. got any credible stats that show linux having more than 5% market share? Can't read? of course you do not. You have a serious reading comprehension problem. I suspect if you take the stats of the backwards USA out of the picture, the user share for Linux would be much higher. After all, only the USA could have such ignorant, biased bigots running for congress like there are today. Those same supporters of Beck, Limbaugh, Palin, O'Donnell and Rand Paul don't know any better than to order a computer from Best Buy with Windows preloaded. I never knew that only republicans buy computers with Windows preloaded. Not what I wrote. The point is that the USA has a large chunk of the usage world wide and most Americans aren't very hip as is evidenced by the fact that the above named idiots may very well take over congress. -- Alias |

Linux is for socially retarded people who can't get laid. I guess you have
no other choice than to use Linux/Ubuntu. Now you have to learn lots of cryptic line commands to get **** to work. HA HA HA HA "Robin T Cockslee" wrote in message ... I have to admit that Windows 7 is most likely the bestest version of Windows since Windows 2000 but even still I have removed it from my Dell system in favor of Linux Ubuntu which I just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 from 10.04 with not a single trouble. Linux just does everything I need and does it for free. I can compile a slim kernel to use on my P4 system or I can have a fat kernel for my i7 system. It's my choice. Windows 7 puts an extra 100 mb partition on my drive that I don't want. Why is that? Linux does what I tell it to do instead of doing what some corrupt company thinks I want to do. I use my Garmin GPS, Android phone, Sansa mp3 player and my Sony USB turntable with Linux and have no problems. So why spend $165 on Windows 7? I've been asking myself the same question. Time to ebay the dung pile and get back at least some of my money. Linux may not be the most popular system but in my opinion it's the best, at least for me. |
