If this effort was made into making Ubuntu work like XP, like supporting Wine or something, in this it is more than welcomed, but to waste this time to get the worst of Windows XP which is the 1999 look & feel in Ubuntu, this is the complete waste of time,
The main question was, if you don't like Windows, and you think it is overprices and garbage and piece of crap and and.... why do you use it anyway???
also we are living in a free market, windows is not the only product in the market, if you think it is over priced, you can either go with a free Linux distro or buy a Mac, and then talk about over pricing hardware & software that basically does nothing
You should look up the term DirectX in the dictionary, also look up how easy to develop games on Windows & Xbox using almost the same code base, and developing games on Windows, Xbox & Zune using exactly the code base with XNA.
I think technology here is the reason.
Not true, if you took a photo of a painting the original painting is completely different, however if you think about printing money, is this still the case?, if we assumed that you can print a 100% exact replica of a $100 bill, does this mean you have $100?
You are talking about the media while I am talking about the copy right, when you copy Windows or Office, you simply steal the copy right from Microsoft, it is simply like faking money, if you print your own money at home, is this right?
No it is not different, you are violating a license and violating the law, if everybody is free to choose which law to follow and which to not follow, so find somebody can say "I don't think rape is a crime, so I will rape whenever I like". PERIOD
It doesn't matter how much you repeat it to yourself that pirating software is different than stealing, it will still be stealing and violating a license.
So you say that the book author or the artist did a better job that he deserves to be paid for, while Microsoft somehow could make a software that happens to be good enough to make gaming possible, and a whole market of gaming and entertainment evolved because of this, but still they don't deserve to be paid, and the reason is because they make so much money, SWEET
