Another baseless lie. You just can't stand the fact that people can be
happy with Ubuntu and that Vista users are pulling their hair out, can you?

Not nearly as desperate as you are, willing to lie and insult people to
make a point.

And nVidia? HP? Dell isn't the only pc maker including a Genuine Ubuntu
OS with their computers. The computer chains here have been doing it for
years.

I have an HP printer and scanner control panel included with Ubuntu. Do
you think that HP and nVidia are trying to cut costs by providing
drivers for Ubuntu? Or, better yet, do you even think before you post?

Only if you want Dell to upgrade the hardware and Dell is in business to
make money, yes?

And nVidia and HP providing drivers makes them how much money? There is
a computer chain here that will sell you a desktop with Ubuntu for less
than with Vista.

Obvious truth! You can't stand the fact that ubuntu is last yrs model
and that linux is losing market share by any available statistical data
and Vista is gaining market share by all statistical data.
If you had any hair left on your bald head you'd be the one pulling it
out...hahaha...lol.

Dell being desperate is not an insult it's fact.

The only "in thing" around here is when Alias leaves to go pester the Ubuntu

Look who is calling the kettle black. Look who is desperate trying to get
the Ubuntu word out to people who don't give a RATS ass. But with the
incredible clout the Ubuntu marketing group has, they have hired Alias as
their Marketing Department - Need I say more?

The proof is in the pudding

Stop lying an insulting people who know more than you do, ok?
That's seems to be all you're capable of lately as the statistical data
shows linux losing ground every month to Vista. Live with it. Liunx is
going nowhere! Your trolling is having the opposite effect and is
driving people away. You're a horrible marketer and ubuntu should fire
your sorry ares immediately! You're doing more harm than good.

Watch Out Dell and HP

Oh whoopie! Dell and HP will sell about 1,000 boxes. That will make a DENT
in the Linux/Ubuntu toy world! Watch out Microsoft, you only have another
50 years before Linux gets to 3%!

They're in deep dudu and it's a desperate market move that so far, has
done nothing to help their sales.
Get use to it. Linux is losing market share every month to Vista.
I know that fact irritates the hell out of you but with you're arrogant
attitude you deserve it.
That's the life of a linux troll (you).
Loser!

He spends all his time here not in the Ubuntu help groups so he wouldn't

Another of you astute observations, right Frank?

Michael Dell CEO of Dell, whom I have met a couple times may be a lot
of things, desperate isn't one of them. Dell by and large is a well
run corporation that made Michael a billionaire many times over.

The obvious truth is you and other fanboy clowns can't stand that
millions of people have reported serious problems with Vista and that
some people have decided that a different OS like Linux Ubuntu works
well for them.

What I have observed watching this newsgroup is while a lot of fanboys
pretend to be "expert" at a lot of things they are far from it using
their computers to do little more than surf the web, get email and
other trivial tasks which Ubuntu seems equally capable of doing.

If it is a fact then you shouldn't have any trouble documenting why.
