Wow, is that for real? I don't believe that people that dumb were allowed to touch computers. Think of all the harm they could do!!

I'm sure someone is just having fun with people, he knows what a computer is so he cant be THAT stupid

still, posting downright incorrect information and holding on to it while presented with proof of the contrary is just stupid.

He does remind me of some anti-ms weenie that runs around this place. NO NAMES.

Haha! I'm sure "everyone" here knows a "jerryleecooper"-like individual

They're like insects, you can't squish them all unfortunately..

I think jerryleecooper must be practicing to be a CEO or a politician. Sticking to a bald-faced lie in the face of overwhelming evidence is a necessity for these jobs. A general detachment from reality helps too.

I think it's pathetic for him to assume that since Vista cost billions to develop and a majority of the population has Windows means that free systems aren't actually free.

Obviously these people assume that Windows is just the GUI - they don't realize exactly when the OS takes over from the BIOS.

And I think it's time the open source operating system community got a bit of publicity - so that people realize it is actually possible to make your own OS.

My 2 cents.

I am without words. I can hardly read the entire posts. How? What? I....am so....lost. What!? I....I....What!?

*Cries*
It's okay Shelly. He didn't know what he was talking about. They just don't know!
*Breaks into total breakdown; Hysterically crying.*

Ahem. This is Shelly. Alboin has lost control of himself, so I will end this post.

Goodbye.

I have a social life, believe it or not. I don't yet have a name for my computer...

Brynet-Inc · Post by **Brynet-Inc** » Fri Jul 13, 2007 9:42 pm

I don't have an active social life.. but I also don't give inanimate objects human names either... (Or any names for that matter, beyond their generic descriptive name.. "Computer #1, desk, chair.. etc")

Anthropomorphizing much?

I have the occasional party that I go to, spend friday nights with people and do other social things. I'm fit and thin too...

I'm the opposite of the stereotype
