No snipping of the drivel.

 

It's where the facts are.

 

 

 

So please tell...how does ubuntool save a user money by paying you to

 

install it?

 

I guarantee any big name OEM PC with Win7 is cheaper.

 

 

 

Me thinks what you like about ubuntool is a free supply of material that

 

you get to bill for.

 

 

 

Only a dumbass would pay for a free OS installed by a dim-witted baboon.

 

 

 

The only cost effective use of morons like yourself would be installing

 

ubuntool on Win98 PCs, keeping an otherwise obsolete PC barely capable

 

of doing web browsing and email.

 

For a mere $200 more than you probably gouge people, they could get a

 

modern PC with Windows7 and actually enjoy using it.

Interesting but a false comparison. Try using a person who buys Win 7

 

retail (after pawning one of their kidneys) and pays the Geek Squad to

 

install it on their computer that's running Vista if you want a real

 

comparison.

Considering none of my clients are dumbasses and I am not a dim-witted

 

baboon, your point, as usual, is absurd.

Strange how the installation of ubuntool brings sweaty balls into the

 

conversation.

 

If you weren't so nervous, your balls wouldn't be sweating.

 

Actually, as you are scamming people, they are probably drawn up

 

internally.

No I don't think so. I was testing the time it required to copy a

 

file. If Windows breaks up files and Linux doesn't then that is simply

 

an attribute of the system and should be included in the test. If one

 

didn't both systems to do their own thing, whatever it might be, then

 

you are not testing normal operation.

I wonder.

 

 

 

Years ago I was somewhat of a "C" fanatic. At the time I had two

 

compilers, Microsoft and Borland. The Borland not only compiled

 

quicker but their code ran faster. Which was a bit mystifying as I had

 

thought that "C" was "C". Finally I compiled the same utility with

 

both compilers and then disassembles them to see what was happening.

 

It turned out that the Borland code just did something, i.e., move

 

byte to A, move byte to B, do something. The Microsoft was doing this

 

and in addition it was checking for stack over flow every time it did

 

a push or pop. so while the Borland was faster the Microsoft was much

 

more robust.

 

 

 

I wonder whether the Linux code is just moving data while the Windows

 

is checking that it did it correctly. If the latter then that would

 

account for the slowness.

 

 

 

But then again it might just be Windows :-)

You keep saying things like that but you never seem to be able to be

 

very specific about things. Is that because I caught you lying about

 

Ubuntu "telling you the copy rate", or because you don't know?

 

 

 

It is very strange. Most people when accused of lying immediately come

 

back with pages of proof that they DID know what they were talking

 

about...But you don't.

 

 

 

It can only be assumed that you were caught lying again and cannot

 

produce proof of your statement.

 

 

 

It seems to be happening more and more these days, doesn't it alias?

 

Cheers,

 

 

 

John B.

Hardly lies. I can provide evidence for nearly everything I write.

 

 

 

You on the other hand never seem to produce any evidence that you are

 

not lying. You simply cone back with some 3 rd year school yard taunt

 

-"yada, yada, yada, your mother wears army boots"

 

 

 

It is strange, you know, few people like to be known as a liar and

 

readily produce some verification for their statements when

 

challenged. You however, never do. You just shout school boy insults.

 

 

 

In short alias, the masked and anymous invalid, you appear to be

 

nothing but a lying fool. Lies as you can never verify any of your

 

statements and foolish for thinking anyone believes you.

 

 

 

Cheers,

Hardly lies. I can provide evidence for nearly everything I write.

 

 

 

You on the other hand never seem to produce any evidence that you are

 

not lying. You simply cone back with some 3 rd year school yard taunt

 

-"yada, yada, yada, your mother wears army boots"

 

 

 

It is strange, you know, few people like to be known as a liar and

 

readily produce some verification for their statements when

 

challenged. You however, never do. You just shout school boy insults.
