    Microsoft Commie President: "Linux 'at end of life cycle"

    You get what you pay for. Linux is free and thus has problems - more installation failures compared to windows along with poor driver management as well. I just installed CentOS on a server and it wouldn't post because there was a PS2 mouse plugged in...I had to use a USB mouse. wtf is this.
