Microsoft works for me. What are you doing so wrong? Besides, advertising for Linux is not what this forum is about, but go ahead so we can bash you for being too stupid to use a computer.

If you have no clue of my background then your statement could be seen a pretty absurd, which it is! It’s free! How could I be helping Lenox or Linux?

Before you let yourself look stupid, you should click on the names of posters and learn what you can about them. It can save you from future embarasment.

I don't know about that. He was able to load 'Linux' when he couldn't open the computer. Maybe he was thinking of the dishwasher.

IMHO, Linus is a better operating system than Microsoft.

I boot Ubuntu from DVD on one of my laptops. It can access my old files in XP and Vista.

The only reason I keep Microsoft around on the main computer is I have children in school and all they have is Microsoft. Keep it for the children so they use the same at home as they do at school.

Microsoft is a monopoly and should be broken into thousands of little pieces. They have almost cornered the market by
‘strong arm’ techniques to get (hardware manufactures distributors/retailers) only their software bundled with the sales of PC’s for some time now. Major retailers have no option to Microsoft unless you increase the price. Pay extra for a free product to be installed on a new PC. That is a monopoly forcing others out of the market.

Linux is a good operating system, so is MAC. I hear less complaints from users on them. Neighbor has run Linux for over 20 years on his home PC’s. Never has had a crash. Can not say the same for Microsoft.

Oh, and I do apologize profusely that this is a Microsoft Forum ONLY and I’m talking about Linux. But it is a better product.
