    Look, fucking idiot, do you also bitch that you had to buy a VCR to watch video tapes? You're making lameass excuses, just like every other whiny bitch on this fucking website. This is why nobody gives a fuck about Linux, and nobody ever will outside of a server setting. You can not make money on Linux software, because the dipshits that run it would rather use a half-baked shitty implementation of software than pay money for something that actually works.
