    wow wii, i caught a thread before it reached 500 comments for a change. i dont care about this particular topic tho except to say i hate microsoft. linux is no better tho, how about u jokers unify under a single version and make it easy to install. and why has it ballooned to such fat proportions? an os should be as small and fast and efficient as possible.
