Linux users like linux because it is not user friendly... it assumes they know how to do stuff with computers.

Very strange indeed.

Merged and moved this thread- thats why LPdads response seems a little strange-Fister

There's no such thing as hippodile (hippopotamus and a crocodile mixed). It's either or Microsoft Windoze or Linux. Couldn't be in the middle. These are two completely different OSes.

Still here is to wishful thinking. I wouldnt mind having the ease of windows on a linux platform.

Think of how simple it would be to sell off linux servers then to people who werent exactlycomputer wizards.

I know it will never happen.. but still hopeful thinking

It takes someone with knowledge to maintain a server, no matter how many times he or she has to look at it. The biggest problem of windows is that it is 'managed' by people who think they understand what they are clicking on.

This is also the reason why Linux and M$ Windows will never unite. The NT kernel nowadays is that good that it can run for a month without problems, so if you reboot every month to do a dozen of updates, you get a quite stable system. The trick is that you need to know that...

LOL the fact that Homeya even believed this for more than a minute makes me wanna die laughing.

Microsoft Monkey Colony on Mars
Microsoft has announced that a team of monkeys will be shot into space in 2005 to establish the first Martian Colony. At a recent press conference, Bill Gates confirmed, "We are already training the monkeys to do simple tasks like reboot the space ship when it blue screens. The space vehicle will be running our newest product, SpacePod 2004. This product will instruct the monkeys how to colonize Mars and establish trade with the Martians. We intend to monopolize this market before Human travel to Mars is possible."

Microsoft Invades Cuba
Microsoft's plan to invade cuba and overthrow the government has succeeded. One Microsoft official said "It's a win-win situation. The US Government is happy and shuts up the DOJ while Microsoft institutes a monopoly within Cuba for everything from computer software to toilet paper. One more step closer to world domination. Heck, we could feed a whole development department for the cost of one developer's salary in the US. They may not know how to create an Operating System very well, but neither do our US developers."

Oh my god this stuff is too funny. Thank you Homeya, however misguided you were/are, for posting this website.

Easy guys. Let's not give Homeya the wrong impression here. ANYONE who comes here, knows they can ask anything, no matter how it may sound to anyone else, without gettting flamed. If a person is misguided, offer help, not ridicule. Kill the message, not the messanger. Welcome to PCTT Homeya! I hope we haven't given you a bad impression of us.
