oh, and saying that "people who couldn't figure that out are racist" implies that rap music is a "black" thing, which is racist.
just in case you couldn't figure that out.
It seems the problem is what you're going to use it for. I use Linux for the simple fact that I work in a computer service shop, and I stare at Windows machines all day. I trudge through the machines of the elderly who have no idea what a "Windows Update" is, stare at mysterious blue screens and generally have no urge to even see the startup screen or the Microsoft logo or anything related to Bill Gates by the time I get home.
However...
Linux doesn't solve all my problems. It doesn't support my printer or my 5.1 sound card. Now, I could have bought a printer and a sound card that Linux did support, but it wasn't installed on my machine at that time, so I really didn't give it much thought.
The argument reminds me of the age-old console debates. For years, fanboys engaged in sprited debates about which system was better, 2600 or Colecovision...NES or Master System, SNES or Genesis, Playstation or N64, and currently, PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube (and PC).
Back in the day, especially the days of NES, you had a lot more exclusive games. There were the requisite first party games, the games you bought the system for, whether you wanted to play Zelda or Phantasy Star, Mario or Sonic. In those days, third party developers didn't have a lot of cash to throw around, so they generally developed for the number one system at the time.
Today, software companies still want to make money, which is why you see Windows compatible software in just about every place you can buy computer related items. It's why your DVDs have Windows requirements for the DVD-ROM portion of your copy of Phantom Menace.
The lesson here is simple: the only people who never fueled the argument were the people who owned both systems.
Other spirited debates you can try:
Coke vs. Pepsi vs. RC
Mello Yello vs. Mountain Dew
Ford vs. Chevrolet
Base jumping vs. skydiving
Tekken vs. Virtua Fighter
Star Trek vs. Battlestar Galactica
Beatles vs. Monkees
the Ghostbusters vs. the REAL Ghostbusters
Transformers vs. Go-Bots
Silverhawks vs. Thundercats
Or, you can make your own!

so what you're saying is, as long as the rhythm and delivery are there, the words are meaningless. nope, try again.
that's because you're a pretentious butthole.

There's actually a restaurant at the end of the universe.
Yeah, and "Fab 5" is in New York.
