What makes windows bearable, too, are some super cool *free* software available for it.

Those are called give-aways. If you have paid for the software, you have paid for the give-away in a way. If you haven't what you are doing is illegal.
Again as I said, weather I own a licence is besides the point. I may be a criminal. I may be pirating everything. I may be ripping DVD's. I even have a plant in Cambodia mass manufacturing illegal CDz. But that is irrelevant here, as *I* & my private business does not matter *here*. For all you know I may be having a licensed version of Windows et.al.. So if you want to go off on a tangent next time, please do so. I will choose to remain on the circumference.
Anyway we can sit arguing like this forever. In the end, we get used to and love what we use.
Yes, we could go on... But we should remember that we should only do things that we love doing legally ;).
yah, they are waiting for you at Puri. You must consider that post seriously. ;-D
I may agree that Windows does give much more better performance compared to Linux with respect to some areas. But then one must also take several other things into account. If Linux was a built like Windows it would be hundered times better, perhaps more stable even.
If I was born a son to the Czar I might have been beheaded. What might have been, is again irrelevant. I was speaking as of *today*.
You may like using MS today, but as how many people and I see it, GNU/Linux will have the upperhand in the future. You can mark my words for this one :).
Yes Sir. Surely I will die a slow death with my dear inseparable windows. And you can rule the world happily ever after with the beautiful princess.
Bah. All this beating the chest reminds me of MicroSoft. Totally. "This is the best windows yet." "Your programs will be run better than before" "Your machine will be faster than before" "Better support for your hardware" blah blah...
Sad.
The best thing one can do for X is to see the shortcomings. You think it has come all this way without that? You can chuck you chest out about X in front of outsiders. But at the LUG ?
bah.
