You realize that them throwing the data away was done for the same reasons the BBC tossed out all those videos and films of old shows -- to save space. "

There's a bit of a difference between throwing out old episodes of Dad's Army and throwing away data that's supposedly helping to prove that man is causing global warming.

I'm fed up with Ubuntu users. If it was just your obscenity of a distribution that was a problem, I could cope with simply not using it. That isn't my biggest issue, however. You insist on lying and engaging in denial about everything that is wrong with it, and suppressing complaint about said problems in any way you can. I know how this post is immediately headed for -1, and the reason given doesn't matter at all, does it?

Well fucking said! *applauds* Ubuntu users are the Scientologists of the OSS world.

Really? If you look at the release dates of previous Windows versions you'll see that Microsoft was releasing a new OS every 2 or 3 years up until they screwed up Vista's development. So, releasing 7 three years after Vista isn't a big deal, and it only proves that "Vista was a failure" to the uninformed.
