Comment SHOULD MS BE PUNISHED for being smart (Score 1) 37
I won't argue with you about flamers except to say that it's about equal on both sides of the fence and only shows the mental capacity of the flamer. They tend to be less technologicaly adept. Either way, your entitled to your opinion. However, I do notice you are an anonymous coward, Your comments give some light to that respect.
I detect that you think windows to be scalable, ;-) and Linux not? You obviously have little experience in this respect.
I too occasionally run through a quick game of Quake on my linux boxes, however my performance is on average much better than what you were getting on your Windows machine. You must have some bad/inferior H/W. Probably the latter, as I have never experienced this "lag" that you refer to.
As to better code, well, It has been written, Linux / FreeBSD are two such examples. At least there is the ability to fix and clean up the bugs.
Unfortunately for MS, that is no longer possible, If they tried to Fix the code the way it should be then they would without question, break what is left that curently limps along, not to mention the apps, that were developed on/for MS platforms by third parties. Chew on this for awhile the next time your staring at a BSOD. ;-)
