i dont want to start a discussion here just want to quote what i read
in some OpenBSD forum
"Linux is for those who hate windows ... and BSD is for those who love UNIX"
not to promote BSD ... but to change the concept that we dont hate
windows ... we just love our computers and want to know about it ...
what here is happening and which is very true ... that we hate windows
and we turn to linux and try to find replacements for windows without
knowing that windows and Microsoft has one bussiness startegy and
their code is based on that ... One brain working to direct it where
ever he wants ... and in linux world ... there are lots of brains ...
and thats what makes computers robust that it doesnt need some degree
to code ... just hop in and start coding with basics and create
something usefull ... so still i would suggest that try to learn the
ins and out of your computer ... not just replace windows ... try some
propriety linuxes then ... or just buy support from ubuntu ... they
well work with every bits of your issue ... you can pay Microsoft
money but didnt ever bothered to pay some geeks of Open Source ... try
to change the philosophy

Thats all ... not relative to topic but thats what i think

Linux *is* user friendly. It's just selective about who its friends are.
If Windows is the solution, can we please have the problem back?
