By the time "the masses" buy Vista computers, all of the teething problems

you see here (drivers, app compatibility, etc.) will be long since solved.

People posting here now are early adopters.

No, only Linux fanboy trolls (like you) start Linux threads in Windows

newgroups.

No it wasn't said much. Stick with 98 and W2K was said much. You're

talking pre activation times, yaknow, last century. People are getting

fed up.

So your saying that XP doesn't need activated?

>People are getting fed up.

 

Yeah, the pirates are.

 

Speaking of last century, how is Linux doing?

No, of course not. That's when MS starting pushing the envelop and,

sigh, like I said, xp.general was not full of Linux posts. At the

beginning it was stick with 98 or W2K. Are you dense?

Not really. Vista is being pirated, although, XP is more in demand I'm sure.

You're lamely trying to trot out a straw man. Please. If everyone adopts

Linux, no pirates for sure -)

No, but you sure are. Still pimping an OS that no one is interested in.

How much are you being paid by "Ubuntu" to infiltrate MS newsgroups?

But see, no one is adopting Linux:

 

http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=2&qpmr=15&qpdt=1&qpct=3&qpcal=1&qptimeframe=M&qpsp=101

 

Linux is behind Windows98, for god's sake. Just slightly above NT and ME.

All dead OSes.

 

Must make you mighty proud to be getting paid by a company going down the

toilet!

You can no longer defend your lies nor can you accept the truth.

We now see this response from you all the time.

It's disappointing, as you've previously presented yourself as a

mentally aware individual.

I'm now very clear that you're not quite what you purport to be.

You're a charlatan.

IOW you're actually rather stupid, quite dumb, ignorant and little slow,

yet you think you're brilliant!

Aaahhh, the biggest fool is the one who fools himself.

Well, that's life pal.

Anything you say in the future will be graded against what you really

are...nothing but a lying linux loser.

No more, no less.

Live with it as it’s the bed you’ve made and you must now sleep in it.

Too bad (for you!).

Frank, there are many things you can use without a key. A book, which is

copyright, for example. To use your lame apple/orange examples, once you

install Windows, the key to get in is your password, not permission from

Redmond. Does your Toyota call Japan when you change spark plugs or oil?

Once again, old Frankie Boy, when soundly refuted, resorts to his old
