HP to Globally Launch Linux-Based PCs

Rade T. writes "Reuters UK reports that HP, the No. 1 personal computer and computer printer maker, said on Wednesday that its putting its weight behind personal computers that run the Linux operating system. I guess this is the first serious step towards solving the problems that Linux faces on the Desktop/Laptop."

    go HP!
    I'll chant "Go HP!" when they dump that man-woman Carly Fiorina in a cardboard box on the side of the street, with a swift kick in the ribs for good measure. It takes a truly sick mind to devolve the reputable manufacturer of some of the best instrumentation and the best calculators into nothing more than a mediocre PC shop. Until they dump that ho-bag and bring "Agilent" (WTF?!? That's not even a word!!!) back into the fold, I will never be able to have any respect for them, Linux or not.

    Linux should be more expensive, since it's more secure and stable. My Linux applications at home never crashes 10 times a day like my piece of crap work Windows applications (mostly windows explorer). I've never had viruses installed on my Linux computer like I've had on my work computer (just by visiting the wrong website, not by opening any email attachements!).

    Please don't mod up lies! Modern linux distros allow yuou to single click (yes, double click is Winndows world, we save you clicks), the RPM file, enter your root password, it automagically resolves your depandcies and installs all your software. Whowever modded this up has not tried the latest linux distros! So metmod the asshat moderator unfair! Anyone who is shocked at the angry responses to this post should try Mandrake 10, Lindows 4.5 and the like to see why people are so mad about people still spreadig fud about linux!

  7. Linux IS EASY TO USE1 by Krik+Johnson · · Score: 0, Troll

    Why are there so many posts on this thread wrongly getting modded 5, insightful by moderators who are uninformed?!????????????

    Please try out the latest batch of Linux distributions such as Mandrake 10, SuSE 9.1, Xandros 2 and Lindows 4.5! There has been YEARS of usabillity FIXES and support. If you think that Linux is hard to use, reply here, stating what distro are you using, is it the latest version? Did you report the bugs? I am sick and tired of people saying linux is hard do use, when distros have bent their back over to make it easy to use, only to fail because of misinformed people using old distros!
