I'm assuming this will be fixed in the normal version or at least in SP1, but it's ****ing up quite a lot right now.

The server used to download this stuff are ungodly fast, and things install godly fast as well on a Linux system. Beats hunting for a .exe then following on screen instructions while it tries to shove bloat ware you don't want on you like some ****ty yahoo toolbar for IE.

i dont want to have to type **** just to install something. i dont want to configure **** just so i can play casual games. i dont want to pay 30 dollars a month(which might i add over time ends up costing more than windows but i dunno my addition might be off somewhere). and you make it sound like installing stuff on windows is hard. you download the .exe from the internet double click next next next done.

also pidgin sucks ass

Ubuntu 9.10 is using Empathy, plus there are like over 5 clients you can use. You also don't have to type anything out to install something, you can use the software ceter. You don't ever have to use Terminal if you don't want to. I know it's not hard running an .exe, but finding that .exe is sometimes hard. Easier just to have a program search a pre-loaded respository for you. Also that's the exact reason I duel boot Windows, I still don't like Windows though.

EDIT: Terminal is just so when you do know bash, you can do things in a fraction of the time. Plus seperating the GUI from the Command line is what makes Linux so retardly stable. Get laid as often as you restart your computer and I'm a vergin ;D

so you're saying windows gets the chick and you're on your own masturbating

i think id rather get laid

fido123 · 10-26-2009, 06:07 PM

It's a joke lol. Running Ubuntu is almost kinda fashionable now like a mac.

MrRubix · 10-26-2009, 06:11 PM

Anything you can do on Linux, I can do in Windows

NFD · 10-26-2009, 06:17 PM

i bet you it isnt

MrRubix · 10-26-2009, 06:23 PM

As someone who can fully use Windows/Linux/Mac, I honestly think Windows is the best option. It's widely compatible and it'll do everything either of the other operating systems can do, in terms of end-goal equivalence. In Linux, you do have a greater degree of control and customization, but it feels like it's a lot of extra work and know-how for the same results that I can get with Windows.

i disagree

WAHHHHH

MrRubix · 10-26-2009, 06:31 PM

blasphemy

fido123 · 10-26-2009, 08:05 PM

I agree that if you don't really care that much, go with Windows, but there's a LOT more that makes Linux great. Arguing over it stupid though as if you're using a computer for solely gaming Windows is the best option for the sole purpose games are made for Windows. Windows also runs, and runs everything else a great deal slower, and in an unnecessary complex way.

Dr Tran · 10-26-2009, 08:07 PM

hey guess how convenient windows is

Dr Tran · 10-26-2009, 08:07 PM

fido123 · 10-26-2009, 08:09 PM

Except for compatability with games, Linux is more convenient. Ubuntu works out of the box in pretty much every case, and it doesn't break down with malware, ever. I take good care of my Windows partition, and when I used Windows a lot more than I do now, at least once a year, usually way more than that I would have to wipe the Windows partition clean. Windows is simply a not so great OS being pushed by a market rather than actually being pushed because it's good.

Dr Tran · 10-26-2009, 08:15 PM

i really doubt you take care of anything with how much you complain about windows breaking on you. im pretty sure you've pee'd on it before.
