Do you include sex?
Sex is not free.

Speak for yourself.

A lie.

A Fact.
Most things won't work with Linux. That's why the support forums are
filled to the brim with complaints and Linux victims seeking help.

A lie. I haven't had any problems since 06 with Ubuntu and everything just
worked out of the box. If that disappoints you, tough titties.


bull****. most popular programs won't run on that ****ty ubuntu. you know,
the INFERIOR OS that nobody wants?

Lol, it seems that almost everybody failed to understand the sarcasm
of your message.

Linux will be the real option to W7 as soon as it starts to cost at
least as much as W7, there's no such things as GOOD and FREE,
believe me everything that's good as a cost.

Sex is not free.


How much do you pay?

Proly not near as much as you!
Oops!

May I ask why you are posting here? Are you some kind a savior who think
he can save people from an OS by posting in their advocacy news group? Get
a life please!

They are trolls, nothing more. They like to put a spider and wasp under a
glass jar and watch them fight, the way kids do.

Yeah, but who gets the wasp and spider under the jar? They must be going
in willingly since no troll can force them on Usenet. It takes two (or
more) to tango/flame.

No, just provoke.

Oh, sarcasm, I love it!

Unless you actually are serious but with a screen name like yours, its
impossible to take you seriously. However, it does sound like most
Ubuntu and or Linux in general installs.

1 sound doesn't work or having trouble getting it to work

2 printer issues

3 video cards being incompatible, unable to use their full capabilities
and the typical linux response is "Well, your video card sucks, buy a
good video card!"

Saying Linux is or is not better than Windows is like saying a shovel is
better than a rake. Yeah, it might be, if you are trying to dig a hole. If
you want to rake out a seed bed, a rake is better.

Some distributions are better than others when it comes to having drivers
included so that it runs on your hardware right out of the box. Others
require that you know how to rebuild a kernel and hunt down and compile
drivers and missing applications. Linux just wasn't made for the technically
faint of heart. Windows was.

And with a screen name like the guy before you...I have a hard time taking
anything he says seriously...puulleeaassee...his Daddy needs to take his
computer way from him until he grows up.

Oh and don't forget that when you finally do get your video card to work,
along comes an updated Kernel and breaks it again....

That's what happened to me.
I had all my video working great with Linux, dual monitors and all.
I did some updates from the Fedora repositories and upon the next
reboot I was left at a command line root login.

Took me 2 days to figure out how to fix it and lucky I had another
computer that I could get on the net with or I would have been dead.

No more Linux for me.
It's just not worth the time wasted trying to make simple things work.
