There you go again with that magical 12 million users. You have no way of

knowing how many saps use that shitty OS. Just because 12 million were

unfortunate to download that dribble, doesn't mean 12 million are stuck

using that OS. That is your big lie.

I know lots of people who purchased Windows 7 without it being preinstalled.

So If know quite a few, then there are millions of others. Oops.

There you go again with that magical 12 million users. You have no way of

knowing how many saps use that shitty OS. Just because 12 million were

unfortunate to download that dribble, doesn't mean 12 million are stuck

using that OS. That is your big lie.

I know lots of people who purchased Windows 7 without it being preinstalled.

So If know quite a few, then there are millions of others. Oops.

Does it really matter? What matters is that Windows 7 is selling millions

and millions of copies. Ubuntu is free yet most reject it. Ubuntu is on

less than one percent of the desktops. It doesn't matter how many updates

there are, the fact of the matter is, Ubuntu can't even give itself away.

Nothing else really matters in your quest as the Ubuntu Marketing

Department.

They (Ubuntu wanks) get what they pay for! LOL!

Not a whole lot of copies to people who've never used Windows. Ubuntu,

OTOH, is being used by former Windows users. See the trend?

First of all, the statements are not lies. Second of all, they pay nothing

for the software and what they use is worth exactly that: NOTHING.

First, to ensure that you're actually testing the difference in each OS

and File structure, you must ensure that the drives are not going to

fragment the test files used.

Second, you should do this under as close to the same conditions as

possible for each OS - meaning that you either don't use Antivirus and

other scanners during the test or you use the same vendors AV/Scanners

on both platforms.

When testing with Windows, don't drag/drop the file using Explorer, use

RoboCopy and it will provide the actual timing values for you.

You're too fucking stupid to know what consumers want.

And yet you claim to work at the retail level.

Do you install what they want, or what you want?

Do a lot of customers ask about HDD rpms, or read/write times?

Of course not...people at that level don't need you.

Actually, a dumbass that just fell off the turnip truck doesn't need

you.

Linux is superior to a typewriter/Nothing at all.

That little bit of reality mirrors its actually usage, mind you, before

you start regurgitating some nonsense responce.

Windows is safe on the web, dumbasses aren't, reguardless of the OS.

Another ubuntard with the boot times...just how often are you booting

that shitty PC?

If you install ubushit, the cost will far exceed buying a Win7 PC, and

will actually work.

Multiple Desktops...big whoop...weee, weee spin cube spin.

If you can master the taskbar, you don't need that nonsense.

It burns better?

You mean a movie burned on linux now has a better ending?

Give me your address, I'm gonna buy you an ubuntad t-shirt.
