    If you're re-installing your OS every 6 months, you're doing something terribly, terribly wrong. Hell, it's easy to have 6 months of uptime with any modern Windows OS.

    I know you're trolling but it was him, not me. And yes, it is entirely my friend's fault that HD warranties now suck.

    He's also been known to download MP3s off the net and even the odd DivX. Oooooh. People bitch about the rules being too strict all the time and then never do anything about it, well at least he's doing something, even if it's bending/breaking them.

    Bite me, bite him, bite yo'self, fool.

    Yeah...read a book, spend a lot of time, and hope linux does what it should do...or spend some money and have a system which is consistent, crashes as rarely as linux and is userfriendly and GUI'd all across the board.

    I guess it just goes to show you get what you pay for.
