French police deal blow to Microsoft

 

by Christina Mackenzie Wed Jan 30, 4:28 AM ET

 

PARIS (AFP) - The French paramilitary police force said Wednesday it

is ditching Microsoft for the free Linux operating system, becoming

one of the biggest administrations in the world to make the break.

 

The gendarmerie's 70,000 desktops currently use Microsoft's

Windows XPoperating system. But these will progressively change

over to the

Linux system distributed by Ubuntu, explained Colonel Nicolas Geraud,

deputy director of the gendarmerie's IT department.

 

"We will introduce Linux every time we have to replace a desktop

computer," he said, "so this year we expect to change 5,000-8,000 to

Ubuntu and then 12,000-15,000 over the next four years so that every

desktop uses the Linux operating system by 2013-2014."

BFD. So a police department decides to use Linux. I bet that gives you one

big HARD-ON!

Nope. Not even close. If a big police department decided to go with

Windows, who cares.

 

Alias just loves to let everyone know when another copy of Linux is used.

It just makes his day

The French paramilitary police force doesn't involve itself in parking

tickets, not that parking tickets had *anything* to do with the article.

It was only a lame (again) attempt on your part to distract from the

subject.

I bet Inspector Clouseau made the decision.

Hercule Poirot did it. I know it. He hates the Americans.

 

I hope it will have a major impact on the crime spree in the country. They

have so many African Arabs that without Ubuntu it is hard to imagine how

they can handle them. That is theTruthHurts@hotmail.com's territory. He is

in class struggle.

 

What shocks me it that the French do have computers!!! They have resisted

the Internet for a very simple reason (paranoid reason actually) that it is

a vehicle of Anglo-Saxon cultural imperialism. Just a couple years ago I saw

a documentary where they showed a French judge sitting in her office and

talking to the media. Her desk is covered with unimaginable piles of paper

folders with no computer in sight.

 

This decision will definitely elevate the French sagging spirit, although

they do not give a damn about anything. They just love to punch Uncle Sam in

the nose even if the impact is just symbolic. A major Software and Hardware

nation, the French Republic has chosen its own way.

 

If you can count anything over two dozen computers in the French gendarmerie

I will give you a dollar.

 

There are no French in the French Legion! Have you seen the movie? What are

we talking about? They are all on extended vacation after working 3 hours a

day. A380 is hanging on by a thread with as many orders as for Ubuntu.

 

This is just pathetic.

You're not the most travelled, cultured or educated moron in your

mid-western states trailer park, are you?

 

Poirot was Belgian, and in every story there was some idiot that thought he

was French, much to his annoyance.

 

And the French are a high-tech country, you may be surprised to know, and

had something called Minitel, that predates the web by many years.

They don't deal with speeding tickets and your lame attempt to distract

The pathetic thing is that Frank thinks he's being cute and clever

whereas, in reality, he's making a fool out of himself with his lies,

insults, profanity and bluster.

Well, there is no much difference between Belgian French and French French

except for the French in Normandy. This is Just FYI.

 

If you don't buy my story that Hercule Poiroit is responsible, then it is

definitely Le Commissaire Maigret but who in this thread have ever heard of

Georges Simenon? This is why I made this "cheep shot." Anyhow ALL police

inspectors are French except for Sherlock Holmes and of course Dick Tracy.

 

I don't know how to read a troll's mind. It is hit and miss. At times I see

something as an attempt to do "tongue in cheek" but mostly you appear to be

deadly serious. It is because you all are so bitter despie the fact that you

are in an "elite" group.

 

The last paragraph is in reference to your quick retraction in the next

post. In any event anything you do is all heavy handed.
