Comment cloud BS (Score 1) 129

i can just hear it now 'So, lets add in more 'features' instead of making it an option " well, maybe not, but i would think nowadays security should be paramount, and *then* arrange a nice UI, surely ? but hey, what do i know, not much. Sadly i'm seeing some unpleasant design ideas creeping into my open source world.. like every Gnome desktop using the largely crap pulseaudio, or my fave KDE assuming you're some sort of calender watching office droid needing PIM Akonadi or Nepomuk - we don't all live in the same world. MAKE THIS CRAP AN OPTION !! message ends .... :)

See how they hate the internets, those politician cats,.. if the 'man' ever invents a time machine, you'd think they'd like go back in time and un-invent it or something. reminds me of a story of a Doctor who invented something once, and it grew big and powerful and tried to destroy him... just a fairy story though huh .. Peace And Love Man ... :)

Comment buy a CD ?? huh ? (Score 1) 243

damn sure i wouldn't BUY another Windows OS as soon as i bought a new computer, i have a couple of clean OEM discs and just use the serial glued to the new toy, if you can get a couple of clean OEMs it certainly makes the whole affair a tidier one. Still think most folks would be more than happier with a Distro like Linux Mint, PCLinuxOS or Mepis, ones that come with codecs & flash .. then they can do their Farmville or whatever it is. my customers really like it :)

Thurott is indeed a foul, foul troll, he's said some quite ridiculous things about Linux because he's a Microsoft shill, bought and paid for, indeed they bought his site. Not liking linux is fine, its not interesting or indeed any of my busines what OS anybody runs. but to spew forth his obviously ill-informed or mistaken 'opinions' for his paymasters, is purely lazy thinking, and disingenuous. he should stay playing his Xbox and cashing the check methinks.
