Uh huh. Not much of an advocate in other words - you don't put your money

where your mouth is.

 

But I have to agree, like for many things including gaming, the Linux

platform doesn't cut it.

 

People who do sound production have a similar excuse. Most of the really

good software is on the Windows platform save the odd Mac piece.

 

The Linux platform doesn't cut it. Not for games, not for sound, not for

business and so on. About he only major success Linux has is in file and web

file serving .. and it doesn't do any better than Windows at these, if. The

rest of the Linux platform is and will stay sh*t.

You have advised people to switch to Ubuntu without a clue as to what they

want to do!

So you can stop those lies as they are easy to disprove.

No, but I bet the Mac user group are worried.

Why would you need a windows server OS?

Windows Server is a software package specially designed for server

operation. It comes with a wide variety of softwares for server duties.

Wouldn't using a server OS make more sense if your hardware is a server

and you will be utilizing the machine for server apps?

Well the comparison was between windows and ubuntu.. neither is intended as

a server even though both will serve.

Well, I was referring to linux, not specifically to ubuntu. I actually

use fedora core. One of the big differences between windows and linux

is that windows has a very clearly drawn line between server and desktop

OSes, while most distributions of linux are all in one package and can

suit either need.

It must be at least the 100th time you repeated that lie already sissy

boy. Your average turnip is smarter than you are.

 

Build and more hardware Bozo? Any idiot that tries to pass himself off

as an electrical engineer like you did by claiming he "builds"

hardware when he is later forced to admit it meant he only replaced

ONE capacitor on ONE circuit board is a jackass, fool and fraud for

sure.

I don't object to you using windows - I object to your BS mantra that

Ubuntu does what most people need and they won't need windows - that it

solves their problems....

 

Clearly, just about any home with a computer also has at least one game

on it, other than what was included, and that means that any home with

kids in their teens, well, they just need Windows to play those games.

 

Now, while Ubuntu is a good BOX for browsing, email, and some other

common things, it does not give your average home with kids what they

need.

 

You seem to think that Mom and Dad are going to be able to manage a Dual

Boot system when they don't need to, they just need Windows and a little

education. As was already proven, a stupid Administrator, someone that

should know better, compromised their Ubuntu installation - so it

appears that all OS's need to have trained users.

 

Now, you can preach that Ubuntu is for the masses, but it fails the one

task - being a full replacement for something that already works.

You are the issue Alias - preaching that Ubuntu is the salvation for the

running Windows.

 

That means that you are the issue, telling lies without concern,

Wrong, it stopped Piracy, once the pirate was exposed the police were

able to stop him - without WPA/WGA it would never have been stopped.

When it comes down to it, there is little cost difference if you want

support - check it out yourself, there is little ROI for going to Linux.

I'm not proven anything - I'm asked to validate a license, like many

other apps that are not MS's, and it's been around longer than MS was

doing it.

 

Only people that suspect themselves as being guilty have your disease.

You are advocating that people switch to Ubuntu, you have done it many

times in this group and the XP groups, but you failed, each time, to

tell them that you continue to run Windows because Ubuntu doesn't

provide all that you need. Funny thing is that you also failed to tell

them that Windows does all that you need, you are just paranoid.

 

So, windows does all that most users (home and corporate) need, in fact,

it does more than Ubuntu can deliver. Fact is that home users would have

to Dual Boot or have two computers if they listened to your Use Ubuntu,

it's all you need and will be simple....

hehehe...you're not doing a very good job of back pedaling you lying

scumbag account.

We all know of your "court room tactics" you've bragged about so many

times in this ng. Getting on the stand and lying for a bunch of blood

sucking attorneys, so you've bragged. Nobody believed you when you

testified did they? They saw right thru your drunken delusional bullsh*t

lies, didn't they.

Well, that same "court room tactic " obviously isn't working in here either.

So go screw yourself as we're all onto your stupid, condescending, lying

big mouth bullsh*t act.

And one other thing...I'd strongly suggest that when you leave that

basement you're currently in you keep your big fat lying mouth shut

least you run into someone like me who'll shut it for you.

As*hole!

Oh? They're looking for a person by the name of "alias"?

I don't think so!

Oh please...don't give me that bs. Fake ID's were a dime a dozen in

spain, italy, france, etc., 20 yrs ago and you know it.

Bribing authorities in a lawless, corrupt 3rd world country like spain

20 yrs ago was common.

Very common.

Nope...wrong again! Southern California is a very big area and LA is

just one part of it.

La La Land is only an LA (Los Angeles) reference.

hehehe...what a fukkin diatribe! Do you ever read the bs you write? If

you did wouldn't you come to the same conclusion you do about ever other

post you respond to saying..."you are just another hot headed idiot that

doesn't have a clue what you're jabbering about".

Wonderful!
