    You're a boring wet blanket aren't you? I bet no-one ever invites you around for dinner.

    Yeah, but the general rule is that for something to be funny, there has to be a joke in there somewhere...

    WTF? Are you RETARDED? Unless you are the shittiest administrator EVER and you're using busted hardware on top of that, XP runs eight hundred times as fast as XFree on GNU/Linux (seeming as how you're trolling about Windows, I'm going to automatically assume and probably assume correctly that you're some gay Linux commie type) on the desktop.

    Grow up.
