LMAO - how true that is!

... and I would be surprised if Windows EVER equates to "Server" in my world.

LOL.... no it's endagering perfectly good unix boxes.... people checking out the video then rushing off to spew somewhere. I'd hate to see good hardware caught up in all that

[Mikkel]

That was disturbing, luckily I managed to wrest myself(CTRL+ALT+DEL) away from watching all of it... My brain is suffering from blue-screen of death right now

I was expecting some vintage porno after she started taking off her clothes...

Saw the first few minutes, and then thought its classic, but it is still MS Windoze...You would never find me running windoze at home nowdays

[riffer]

That was just painful. I'm still twitching...

Me too.

Was rather dissapointed.

Guess that scene ended up on the cutting room floor

To be honest i am a bit of a windows fan, I do like Linux, but i feel it has too many variants right now. Ubuntu was really the first one where people started talking to each other. But i guess what do you expect with "Open Source" - look at the knowledge of Wiki (or the dumb comments). If there was a program that i could download that did everything and called "Linux - the one and only" i would run that on ALL my PC's. This is currently the market issue that is has against it. Unix is nice......but so is a Lunar Lander. Telling the girlfriend to "FTP the sub directory to copy the file" would prove that stones do not at all bleed. Windows is good in the aspect i can tell her, "Ok open up winamp, click Add folders", add the music network drive" and voila she now has every song in her playlist, playing on her PC, loading from the server.
Long story short - Stew get sex for making magic computer thing happen.
Showing her a terminal session killing applications off seems to only make her say "thats great" and walk off......no sex

TBH I don't give a shit what my girlfriend thinks of my OS. She doesn't use it, my computer is my computer. I still get to look like the Hero Guy by fixing her Macbook instead

I get your points. People try to offload it onto everybody as a direct replacement for Windows. I don't know about that, I don't think it's there yet. But for people like me, if you make the effort to learn UNIX/Linux, you end up with a very powerful versatile tool. Most people don't need or want what it offers, but I do. That's my mindset, maybe why I use LaTeX instead of Word/OpenOffice and C instead of Python.

Friendly marketable Linux-in-a-box for the mythical `Grandma' doesn't interest me. But then again I'm no Linux bigot, I'm OS-independent as far as you can call somebody that.
