Vista Vs. Gutsy Gibbon
ricegf writes in with the account of one Rupert Goodwins writing in ZDNet UK. Goodwins has 7 computers running various versions of Windows and Linux, and explains why he chooses to do most of his work on the Gibbon. "So here's the funny thing. I've used Windows since 1.0. I've lived through the bad times of Windows/386 and ME, and the good times of NT 3.51 and 2K. I know XP if not backwards, then with a degree of familiarity that only middle-aged co-dependents can afford each other... Then how come I'm so much more at home with Ubuntu than Vista? It boils down to one abiding impression: Ubuntu goes out of its way to get out of your way... Vista goes out of its way to be Vista and enforce the Vista way."
I don't see any troll here. Give the guy a break, he's being sincere with his opinion: he sees what he wants to see and we all do that. We WANT to like linux, or MacOS... Why it's so hard to accept that other people can like Windows, Amiga PalmOs or whatever?
It's time to realise that Abble's products are the biggest abomination these days. Just say NO to the dumb iAbble way!!
Moderators be warned, this is just twitter posting with his alternate account because his main one is in karma hell and posts at automatic -1. Can you believe this; he even links to a twitter journal, no one but twitter himself would use that as a credible source of anything.
Well jesus fucking christ, a geek who is wedded to his favorite distro.
Stop the presses folks, this guy has something important to say.
1999 called and it wants its attempt to start an intradistro flame war back.
Came to point out the points of superiority vi has over emacs? I'm on the edge of my seat.
