why linux? errr......

have the fun of laughing when windows got compromised count as a reason?

people who hate linux because the command line need to understand why microsoft build windows, in the old day (thousand of years ago ) computer only use by big company (pro). the click next next function was build for newbie user, after five years i using computer i think i should go to next level (unix base) i not using computer for game why should use windows, it always crash and force me to restart (it just pain in 'a'word). if you hate linux because typing typing stuff you just lazy son of ugly female dog

i don't dislike linux because of its commands, i dislike its complications. since we are more used to ms's "next" feature, it suddenly feels like we have to do a lot more on our own. but after struggling for almost a year now, i feel like i have learn a lot more with linux compare to ms, though obviously still far from enough for me to dance across the keyboard. n besides they have adept/synaptic if people prefer the "next" feature. haha.

because linux is free and I actually learn more on what I am doing to the computer (terminal based)

Most ppl who dislike linux mainly because of them being used to windows..

Or because they get the impression that most people uses windows so we should all use windows(That what my friend told me when I'm trying to advocate Linux)

dislike linux because not being used to is something that sound stupid me, just my opinion.
is not like when the first time using windows u know everything right, you need to learn everything from modified startmenu to deleting file from program file(folder) without making any harm to computer and modified regedit, it take time learn too right, is just the matter want to learn something new or not

It's a shame that in Malaysia, we are so sensitive about English words to the extent that a common word can be banned from usage, when it's perfectly acceptable in native English-speaking countries.

Anyway, female dogs don't give birth to "son". Technically the word is "pup". If you want to call a person a son of a b****, then simply write "SOB". Or be smart and just use "son of a gun". It may be an older expression, but I don't think the powers that be would be so anal-retentive as to ban the word "gun". Or at least I hope not.

linux is the OS with red hat??

or is that called RED HAT?

is this OS more reliable than Windows?

started to hate windows.. cos always kena trojan/virus!!

there are a lot of os for linux, red hat is one of them. there are others like ubuntu, kubuntu, puppy linux, etc.

did you know that there are no virus in linux can really harm your computer now (maybe in future)
you can start with ubuntu or freespire cause it easy to install

Kena virus once, shame on your antivirus. Kena virus twice, shame on you (for not looking up a better antivirus).

-- Avira Antivir user since AOL dropped Active Virus Shield. Never kena virus once since then.

not just easy to install but easy to use..
but need internet connection for update purpose..
most of codec not install yet, i hope they can combine ubuntu installer with usual codec

"And how does Windows get updates? Do they have gnomes deliver the CD to your house?"

Someone said this in reply to a similar comment about updating Linux. Don't remember who but I'll steal it anyway

well debian and ubuntu not so different..


one of my friend try to install ubuntu, but he choose the wrong configuration while select partition, and then all the partition got formatted,
so sad becoz he lost all data including the assignment and project proposal

so beware when u choose to format the partition,

same goes for ms users. hehe.

i'm a loser in real life. ever since i started to use linux, i've been getting calls after calls from girls asking me out on friday and saturday nights. in fact i've been so busy i've got no time to keep up with the latest kernel updates.

i've since reverted back to vista because of the superior cleartype font rendering and the sane windows manager. but sometimes when i go to sleep, i'll stare at the ceiling and that'll remind me of the girls that'd use give me booty calls because i can ls their feelings and cat my opinions > their heads with empathy.

i also miss linux's commandline subsystem when i'm doing dev work. but i've totally forgotten about them ever since i got up and running with powershell and the cygwin linux utils.
