I've ignored you for the longest, but dude, do you even know how to use Linux? I don't feel like using a shell for things all the time (not saying you have to, but installing things can be a total PITA). I run a dual boot linux/XP on both of my systems, but I still spend most of my time in windows. I use linux occasionally to audit security on networks and a few other things. Not to be a dick, but seriously, for a LOT of things windows XP is just plain easier. Mind you Ubuntu is a pretty good OS, with lots of free software available, but linux in and of itself is not for your every day average person. for tech type people it's fine if thats what you like. Win2k was alright in it's day, but run it now, and you'll have crap support and viruses all over the place. Vista is just plain garbage as far as I'm concerned but that's a whole different ball game.RyaNtheSlayA wrote:oh m g why are you using windows. use Linux. OR EVEN MAC. If your going to use windows use Win2k. By far the best.

Need FreeMCboot? I'll install it on your PS2 Memory Card for free if you cover postage both ways.
Consoles: I have too much stuff
Arcade: No seriously, I have too much stuff. Someone grab a shovel and dig me out of my basement.

I have little doubt that he's barely touched any linux distro. He dabbled in it once or twice, only to use it as ammo in troll posts like that one.skate323k137 wrote:I've ignored you for the longest, but dude, do you even know how to use Linux?
