I’m actually looking forward to doing this, but my kids are getting pretty savvy these days. Won’t be surprised if they haven’t already done it. I just haven’t been downstairs yet!

its actually kinda fun to mess around with- knowing if anything goes wrong, you can start over and reinstall quickly- unlike with windows os-

You’re one of the worst offenders ShadowAce.

You act as if anybody not using Linux is an inferior human being.

I’ve been writing software for over 25 years. I work both in Windows and linux. I freely admit Linux is Superior in many ways, to Windows.. but I understand why everybody uses windows. After 50 years Linux does still not have the same ease of use as Windows for Grandma who just wants to check her email and see pictures of their grandkids.

There are pure Market Force reasons why windows took over the market and Linux Geeks just don’t seem to understand how that happened, and never will apparently.

But some of you Linux users remind me of vegetarians, or Worse vegans. They insist on telling everybody how much more Superior they are because they only eat vegetables, and try to convert you to become a vegan too.
