They don't lie. With the exception of gaming, Ubuntu is a better and a more real OS than ANY flavor of Windows. Yaknow, there was this car manufacturer called Ford that used to be number one. After some years, GM became number one and Ford number two. Now Toyota is number one. Why? Toyota makes better cars, although it took some time for the product loyal American public to wise up. This analogy applies to Wintards like you and Frank in spades. -- Alias To email me, remove shoes > > "Alias" <iamalias@shoesgmail.com.> wrote in message > news:ejqzRBe1HHA.4004@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... >> Bill Yanaire wrote: >>> "Alias" <iamalias@shoesgmail.com.> wrote in message >>> news:ei6Qnxd1HHA.5164@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... >>>> Bill Yanaire wrote: >>>>> well then, if you use Linux and it works, why the hell post here? >>>> To spread the good news, what else? >>>> >>>>> You related to Alias? >>>> One does not need to be related to me to discover and enjoy the benefits >>>> of a real operating system. >>>> >>>> -- >>>> Alias >>>> To email me, remove shoes >>>>> "Potential Windows Vista User" >>>>> <PotentialWindowsVistaUser@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message >>>>> news:FC3E888B-C069-4089-94A4-C714BF23086C@microsoft.com... >>>>>> Go here http://www.podshow.com/shows/?mode=d...isode_id=73353 and >>>>>> listen >>>>>> how to get a complete refund for the full purchase price of all your >>>>>> Pre >>>>>> Installed Microsoft Software on your comptuer so that you are not >>>>>> charged >>>>>> once for Vista and then again for XP or whatever you use.

No I have lived here 42 years and know quite a few people but not 60,000. But I teach computer use and have been in touch with most of then that way. Also we have a Linux users group here in my county and so i Know the one's in town who do have it. Now of course you are going to say that all of them may not join the group, right again but then Neighborhood watch send out emails and I organize that and guess what, we ask what system they run. Shall I go on, no I will bore you but yes I can easily glean the coverage. -- Ian |
