RE: [Plug] Ya know, it's a shame..

I know you are all going to hate me but I have to say this:
What are you doing that you can't keep Windows running. Windows isn't that
bad. I am running NT4, 95, 98, and 4 Linux boxes, and the only time I have
to reboot Windows is when I load configure or something. You make Windows
seem like it has no legs to walk on. I love Linux, and I am doing a hell of
a lot of studying to learn more, but if Windows is so bad why does 3/4ths of
the world use it. There are many options today, so it can't be the reason
it is the only one out there. You have Linux, Unix (all versions), BeOs,
95, 98, NT, Mac, OS/2, and others. There are many office programs, business
program, and anything else that might be needed that runs on other OSs. If
all of you are having that many problems then you better leave computers to
the more capable.

I run win95, linux and SCO opensever on a pentium 166. NEVER have to reboot
Linux
or SCO but have daily visits from the blue/black screen of death on win.
Same
thing, I have to keep sindows just for certain applications. Yep, pisses me
off
too. Can't be happy all the time.
