somthing for you linux nuts out there. Read this and have a laugh: http://www.microsoft.com/ntserver/nts/news/msnw/LinuxMyths.asp I know, what a load of BS. But then if your laughing now, laugh even harder because here comes the parody site from none other than laughs.linuxlots.com http://laughs.linuxlots.com/webpages/myths/en/ Man, it makes me very angered that MS can get away with this. Damn I want to just to America and tell Bill what I think.

It''s old and outdated.

I know, I read that. But what does that have to do with it?

MS, still lied, didn''t they? And it''s still quite amusing isn''t it?

Oh, and it''s still on their web site.

Just gotta add my fav line here:

quote:

As others have so nimbly put it, Windows® consists of 32 bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16 bit patch to an 8 bit operating system originally coded for a 4 bit microprocessor, written by a 2 bit company, that can''t stand 1 bit of competition.

It's old info, it's not valid anymore (heck, I don't know if it's true or not, maybe back in 99 Linux didn't beat NT ). Does it really matter that MS lied once again? They've lied several times before, in the installation of Win98 they told me that Win98 would be stable for example.

And yes, it is amusing

I''m not a big fan of MS or anything, but Muzzafarath is right, it''s old. Really old. And I guess we all know the truth, don''t we?

LINUX ROCKS!
