Due to MS's monopolitic grip, it's almost impossible to avoid having to use their awful products.
And as for referring to users as "zealots", well, Linux has zealots, MS doesn't. Linux is better in almost every way to Windows. Doesn't that tell you something?
That's right, MS software isn't even good enough to attract zealots.
Who gives a fuck what "Joe sixpack" thinks? It works for me and that's all I give a fuck about. I don't care if he goes out and buys every piece of MS software that comes out. He's the one getting shafted up the arse, not me.
I'll stick to my quality, free, open-source software and everyone else can go fuck themselves.
"Damn good programming"? The only things worth watching on the BBC are the Simpsons and Match of the Day. And they don't even have Match of the Day anymore.
The BBC is no better than ITV or Channel 4, if not worse. Now they don't have Match of the Day, the only thing worth watching is the Simpsons. And it's not worth £110 a year just so there's no adverts in the middle of it.
And it isn't braindead enough to open a new main window just for each page you open.
And it makes it as easy as possible to turn on/off javascript/java/images.
And navigating the config isn't slow as fuck.
And it doesn't keep the history and cache in secret cryptic directories.
And it has a separate window dedicated to downloading files, so you don't have a little pop-up window for every downloading file cluttering up the place.
And when a download breaks you can select "resume".
Opera kicks the shit out of IE in every factor save price.
No, I think he meant crimes like murder, rape and mugging. I know I'd rather they spent their time preventing murder, rape and mugging than stopping people using software.

I can't see how this is anything that can't be done with a simple cgi script with a web interface that runs an mp3 player on your computer.
As for sound quality, mp3s are relatively crap quality anyway.
What? Everyone having guns would make a Columbine-style shooting impossible. As soon as they tried to shoot anyone, they'd be staring down the end of another 20 barrels.
You're right, it is failing. My Debian installation is falling apart as we speak. Thanks to your comment, I can rid myself of this terrible, failing system and use a Real Commercial OS.
Oh fuck off. The Europeans are there to be made fun of. Taking the piss out of frogs and krauts is almost as fun as taking the piss out of women/blacks/muslims/queers etc.
But then again, there's not much to gain from going to an icy, lonely place such as Antarctica when there are luxurious climates only the odd thousand miles north.

Who in their right mind would use a word processor for equations?
Anyone in their right mind would use LaTeX for this purpose, as anyone would do for serious document preparation system.

Hahahaa!!! Ipswich are bottom!!
Long live the mighty Wanderers!!!

What a complete ripoff.

It wasn't even a virus. It was a worm.

Oh come on. People don't voluntarily chose IE. They use it because it comes with the computer. The same reason people Outlook Express and Windows.
Do you think the typical ignorant user actually decides what OS/browser/mailer he uses?
If you don't agree with the licence, then you take it back and get a refund. There is no excuse for not obeying licences.

"Too poor"? Maybe just willing to steal the tax-payers' money to give people luxuries such as Internet connections.
There is absolutely NO justification in stealing people's money to poor people can download porn and mp3s.
What? Windows still doesn't have an install program.
Debian has had apt-get for as long as I can remember.
I don't think I can upgrade from Windows ME to Windows XP via a single command. I can in Debian.
Erm, many programs refuse to run under root anyway, so users would be forced into logging in properly.
"Insightful"? I think "ignorant" would be closer to the mark.
until then you will have all kinds of problems with different library versions/locations.
Apt-get seems to take care of that for me.
No more having to upgrade everything
Yeah, you can stick with Windows 3.1 and still be fine. No expensive upgrades necessary.
no more compiling every thing just to install it
Sigh. Why do the wintrolls have to be so stupid and ignorant of Linux? It's clear from this post that he's hardly ever used Linux, if at all.
That explains all those "Windows for spackers" books that sell so well.
Yeah, Windows is so easy to use. That explains all the bookshelves full of books like "Windows ME for idiots" and "Excel for the mentally disabled."
But then again, there's not much to gain from going to an icy, lonely place such as Antarctica when there are luxurious climates only the odd thousand miles north.
An anarchist? I suppose fusion research and nuclear power is REALLY going to take off under anarchy...
Why are anarchists and hippies so fucking naive and stupid?
Lucky? I don't think so. Red Bull tastes like bull's piss.
