[Vincent, Thunder God]

Usually my error report works (it responds), but the error report itself for my particular problem has not given me any solution to my problem, which sucks. My computer crashes because of an internet driver, but I don't think I can update the driver (no update availavle) or get a new one without causing problems.

Bill stepped down. He no longer runs facisoft.
He's still CEO until the end of 2007.

I don't really hate Windows because I only use it to play games. I have a very minimal setup so if something goes wrong at least I can narrow the problem down. All my other computer use is relegated under Linux. :)

[Levian]

Hating microsoft is cool these days, so I will be different and like it. I also like ballet and when pens run out of ink.

He is stepping down in june of 2007. Baulmer is already taking the helm so to speak. Gates will ease out of his position ~ the transition has long since been started :)

I don't hate windows. I hate linux, mac, unix and most other desktop OS though. Servers are another thing all together.

[Slothy]

I don't hate Windows. At least not Windows XP; it's the first one in years to actually work. All of the versions from 95 up until XP royally blow though. Honestly if you're running, say, Windows 98, just save yourself some time and toss your computer into the middle of the street now.

[Captain Maxx Power]

Windows works just fine, it just happens to be cool to bitch about it. Much like it's cool to complain about Internet Explorer, champion alternative low-budget computing methods, and make in-jokes relating to CK's and CK's only.

[Breine]

Windows has always worked fine for me, so I actually like it quite a bit... But if my computer crashes at some point I'd probably be the first to complain about Windows, though :rolleyes:

[Madame Adequate]

I'm going to have a linux box, once I get a new box that is, because it's a better bet for non-gaming stuff. Although I hear good things about WINE, but I don't want to install Linux and then discover those good things were lies.

Point is: I know what I'm talking about.

[Yamaneko]

Linux is annoying if you're not willing to do command line work. That applies to most people and I don't blame them.

[Dreddz]

You heard...

[Odaisé Gaelach]

And have any of you Windows lubbers given linux a decent try? It is ok if you love it; as long as you claim ignorance to linux!

I have. Linux is a nice operating system (in my case, specifically, Suse Linux :tongue:). The only major problems I have with Linux is the shell commands and the bootloaders. I've had enough DOS commands to last a lifetime; I don't want to have to learn another mountain of Linux commands.

Plus, the bootloaders suck - both Grub and Lilo. At least with Windows you can modify the bootloaders easily with the Boot.ini file. If you use a Linux bootloader then you're stuck with it for life - even if you remove Linux from your system.

For me, nothing beats Windows. :)

[edczxcvbnm]

I have used Red Hat and Suse. I stand by their suckiness for reasons explained by others already.

[Shoeberto]

Linux is annoying if you're not willing to do command line work. That applies to most people and I don't blame them.
That's part of what keeps me from getting other people to adopt it. It's a shame, too, because it's people who just can't keep themselves out of trouble on Windows, so I'm fixing their computer every couple o f months as a result of them using it.

Plus, the bootloaders suck - both Grub and Lilo. At least with Windows you can modify the bootloaders easily with the Boot.ini file. If you use a Linux bootloader then you're stuck with it for life - even if you remove Linux from your system.
Actually, you aren't. It's relatively painless to remove it, too.

I dislike Windows on principle that it's really expensive. Like, $100 for a license that I can only use across three computers, and then I have to buy a new copy. My old Win98SE CD (OEM, at that) let me install unlimited times on unlimited computers. Their licensing scheme just seems a little ridiculous, even though it's in attempt to stop piracy - but really, if I knew I could buy a license and not have it worthless after three installs, I would get a real copy. It's just not economic for me at the current license model.

That's seriously like 2/3s of why I try to use Linux.

[Odaisé Gaelach]

Believe me, I tried.

[Meat Puppet]

Windows is pretty good. I've never had any heavily upsetting problems with it.

GEM Desktop is Where It's At, though. (mostly due to nostalgic reasons)

I still don't understand how people manage to crash their windows installations all the time.

It degrades under normal usage. People are not to blame.

[Clouded Sky]

I hate when I forget that the windows are open and it rains. Then everything gets all wet. :(

[Yamaneko]

Believe me, I tried.
What's so hard about "fixmbr" using the Windows repair command line?

Oh, and GRUB is much more powerful than the Windows bootloader. I never have any problems editing menu.lst after a kernel compile.

clout I believe was making reference to the RPM-centric environment of Redhat. RPMs are terrible for package management compared to .deb.

[Odaisé Gaelach]

What's so hard about "fixmbr" using the Windows repair command line?

I think I've just been owned.

[Yamaneko]

It's not a Linux problem. By default GRUB writes itself to the master boot record. fixmbr just rewrites the mbr with the Windows installation. It's also possible to boot straight into Linux without GRUB.

Yast is terrible.

My favorite is the fact that it breaks the file system via its dirty mount/unmount systems. Litterally; it is self destructive.

Mac OSX is prolly one of the greatest user friendly computers out there.

Ubunto sucks, I must say. I was horribly let down. It is easy, but its a bit ished up as well. I would rather go red hat, even though red hat sucks too.

The beutiful thing is, when I say linux, I am talking the OS, not the distros plumb full of shattily assemebled open source software, but a more carefully implimented Distro like Slackaware, or from scratch.

And since when are you stuck with Grub or Lilo w/o config? I don't ever really use grub to any other degree than install, but I know you can do a ton of configuration post install with lilo.

Suse Linux was the first distribution that I installed on my PC. I didn't want to muck about too much with the settings during install, so I just chose the defaults for pretty much everything (except partitions).

The problem was that Yast wouldn't configure it. It just wouldn't write to the boot loader, it would always freeze.

[Dr Unne]

On the topic of bootloaders, you can use the Windows bootloader NTLDR and add a menu option to boot Linux. But you have to use dd to dump a raw image of your Linux boot sector and store it as a file on your Windows partition, because the Windows boot loader is too stupid to read ext3 / reiserfs partitions, let alone know how to boot an OS from one. This method doesn't require modifying your MBR at all and it's very easy to uninstall. Not that "fdisk /mbr" is hard though.

That describes my current setup exactly. :D

On the topic of distros, the one main thing I strongly dislike about Ubuntu us the lack of the root account by default. I want to run su once, not use sudo all the time. :mad2:

Well you could always create a root account, but I don't think you should really be using a root account for every day usage. Sudo by default gives you root access for five minutes before it expires. I don't mind using it at all.

[Dreddz]

Dreddz is the original Mac fanboy. Really. Macs have problems too.

Yes, but not half as many as Windows. My G4 had an issue of crashing alot and unexpectadly quitting programs while im using them. My G5 dosent have this problem, and I'd say its near perfection :)

Macs recently had a bad problem where the drivers could be coaxed into allowing one to have root access or some such.

The problem could only be exploited through a third-party NIC card. No one uses a third-party NIC card with a Mac.

Windows is probably still the best operating system out there. The only problem is is that it is extremely complicated, and unless you know what you are doing, there's really no point to it. Bill Gates thought everyone would be able to utilize it as he does, but nope, that was a sore misjudgement.

India has the idea:



"The New York Times reports that the communist government in the Indian state of Kerala is trying to remove Microsoft from its public institutions, as part of a campaign against monopolistic corporations. From the article: 'schools and public offices across the state are being encouraged to install free software systems instead of purchasing Microsoft's Windows programs. "It is well-known that Microsoft wants to have a monopoly in the field of computer technology. Naturally, being a democratic and progressive government, we want to encourage the spread of free software," M. A. Baby, the state's education minister, said by telephone.' The government is not banning Microsoft, but it is actively encouraging all 12,500 public schools in the state to install Linux."

[Rostum]

I worked in university, with audio engineer and other media formats (including graphic design and 3d modeling). We used both Mac and PC, and they were both very power machines.

To be honest? I saw no difference other than the prefernce you prefer in an OS layout. (i.e. what you find easiest to navigate) I've never had any problems using Windows for all my media needs, and neither for Mac. I just like Windows' layout a lot better as I'm used to navigating around with it.

Macs can crash just as much as Windows does, I've learnt this a lot. And BTW, I have both a PC and a MAC in my home, so I do use them both extensively.

My opinion: I like Windows.

[Quindiana Jones]
