Red Hat Cornering SCO in Delaware
LordNite writes "There is a great article over at Groklaw on the latest motion in the RedHat's Delaware suit. RedHat has filed for the start of discovery. Looking at the list of documents RH is requesting it looks like SCO will finally have to come clean. Naturally SCO is trying to stall. It looks like the beginning of the end of this whole mess." The faster this can get into court and be over, the better.
FUCK OFF TROLL!
And Hello to you! It's amazing how many people ignore these common courtesies, isn't it?!
I added a Linux partition to my WindowsXP box, and installed Redhat 7.1. When I try to close one window in Mozilla, ALL of my open mozilla windows crash. When I try to move my mouse in KDE, it freezes up and I have to telnet into the machine from my XP box to shut it down.I can't help you much with the mozilla problem, but I've heard of KDE's issues. You could try using gnome instead of KDE; although gnome has its own issues. You see, the mouse works fine in gnome, but if you touch any key on the keyboard, the whole thing freezes up. Some people have suggesting merging KDE and gnome. I think that if they actually did that, nothing would work. Those people must be dumb.
I heard Linux was more stable and secure, but how come I'm having these problems? Also I can't run any Windows programs in wine because wine can't run them for some reason. I paid for the Redhat Pro box, which cost me almost 200 dollars, and the redhat tech support was very feeble and wouldn't answer any questions other then the most basic. Redhat did send me a hat for buying the Pro version, but I'll have to toss it because I wouldn't want anyone to know that I was foolish enough to pay for a linux distro..Dude, I so know what you mean about tech support. They are always like, "Did you reinstall the program?" or "Is your computer on?" But when I ask them "How much does your desk weigh?", they just stop talking. Stupid tech support.
With all these linux problems, how could those promoting linux say it is more stable then windows? It isn't from my experience, and the money I wasted on Redhat 7.1 could've been spent on a date. My question is, why would people use FUD to promote something that doesn't work on the desktop?I too tried Redhat on the desktop (but not 7.1). I found it worked better on the floor. Try that next time and see if it helps.
Thankfully I used partition magic to reformat my linux partition and now my Windows XP OS does everything I want. Common sense tells me there is a reason why people don't use linux, and it's not because microsoft is "evil". I've never had any problems with a windows OS crashing (mostly because I used Win NT 4, Win2k and now XP).I also returned to NT4 and using Redhat. What else can I say, after 7 years NT4 is still rock solid. I've never had to install those service pack things because I've never experienced any problems with it. Different user accounts makes it a great home system.
Why do you guys lie so much about Linux? It seems like a fun hobbiest toy, but for real work, XP is the answer. Maybe if your claims about stability were true, more people would use linux.Haha, burn. Perhaps Al Frankel will write his next "Lying Liars" book about linux nuts!
Peace and hair grease,

Oh hush, don't bring tedious old facts into this. Next you'll be claiming that BSODs only happen once in a blue moon in WinXP, you crazy man!
If you were blocking sigs, you wouldn't have to read this.
