Thanks for the answer tho! Maybe I need to get involved in some more conversations!! At this rate, I'll have been here for a year before I make 2nd rank.
By the way, that avatar rocks!! I feel the same way
Actually, Microsoft can't be that bad, the U.S.A. army, the Australian army, etc all use Windows XP to run their systems and hardly any software works on linux, especially games most are for Windows and sometimes for mac and windows but they're all mostly for windows. :pDonCBen wrote:I am starting to feel anti microsoft, and with IE being in that category, I now go with FireFox.

IMHO, microsoft is the main reason most computers have such viral issues, there are too many holes for malicious software/people. Of course, I know it's also a popularity thing. So many people attack windows, b/c that's what everyone has.
I wonder if this is about to turn into another topic completely...
The US military is using Linux more and more. And it was a fault in XP that caused the British and French submarines to collide.Dark Lord wrote:Actually, Microsoft can't be that bad, the U.S.A. army, the Australian army, etc all use Windows XP to run their systems.DonCBen wrote:I am starting to feel anti microsoft, and with IE being in that category, I now go with FireFox.

Well there could be a fault in any operating system, and what military would be dumb enough to switch to linux when its just put together by a bunch of developers, its not actually a solid operating system.jaxad0127 wrote:The US military is using Linux more and more.

That, actually depends on the distro. Redhat, for example is quite droolfully solid. Ubuntu is also fairly solid, for a Linux sell-out.Dark Lord wrote: Well there could be a fault in any operating system, and what military would be dumb enough to switch to linux when its just put together by a bunch of developers, its not actually a solid operating system.
And the difference is? Linux us far more solid than Windows. It's used more in high performance, high availability, embedded, etc, systems than Windows.Dark Lord wrote:Well there could be a fault in any operating system, and what military would be dumb enough to switch to linux when its just put together by a bunch of developers, its not actually a solid operating system.
Isn't every operating system put together by a bunch of developers. I wouldn't want to use one put together by a bunch of slugs personally.Dark Lord wrote:Well there could be a fault in any operating system, and what military would be dumb enough to switch to linux when its just put together by a bunch of developers, its not actually a solid operating system.
