Secret of DFS' Career

As you would take anybody's opinion on Linux here seriously that says anything at all negative about Linux? LOL

Windows users have a definite interest in seeing Linux become compebreastive on the desktop. Do you think we like activation and paying upwards of a 100 bux on Windows? Are you stupid?

However, Linux is seriously being hampered because Linux Lunatics like you are claiming that Linux is already there and better than Windows.

Until you face up to the fact that Linux has a *long* ways to go before it is even *near* Windows, Linux is *never* going to be successful on the desktop.

You need to understand (*really* understand) why Windows is successful (and if you think because MS is an evil monopoly, you lose), and figure out Linux' weaknesses and work on those.

Until you can admit your faults you will never improve. Until the Linux community can say, "Hey, we are far behind Windows, here is the top 100 list we need to work on right *now* to start becoming compebreastive" (really compebreastive in the minds of *normal* people, not NERDS), Linux is not going to get better.

People the likes of Bailo are just going to continue to trash Windows, Windows users, whatever, and Linux is just going to be the same old hard to install, unsupported by most 3rd parties, few applications available, lack of polish, consistency, ui standards, etc. that it is right now.

For right now, Windows XP is clearly better in *almost* every category. Linux can't even be given away - people simply do NOT want it right now.

I would like to have something that doesn't cost me money and I don't need to register or activate. However, Linux doesn't even come *close* to offering what I and most other consumers want.

But I have hopes that it will get better...
