Uh... who is rating Linux so highly?

Linux Users


That's because they know how to use it Mbrown, once you gain enough Linux experience, decide on the perfect distro for you (Fedora Core for me), be able to use Linux alone without any other OS, then at that point you will see what's great about not paying a single cent for anything after that, and being able to see yourself as a contributer to a community rather than a slave to a monopolistic company. Just something for you to think about.

I found it comical.



That is the standard response you can expect now whenever the title says something is funny, whether it be funny or not.

Don't blame the OS when it's the users fault.

Name something you can do in Windows you can't do in Linux.

Easy is relative. If you started using Linux instead of Windows when you got your first computer everything on Linux would be a LOT easier then in Windows. What is easy to you, might not be easy to someone else. That being said, an OS shouldn't be judged on how easily someone can do something in it. It should be judged on how well it does certain tasks.

I could name dozens of things that are easier for me to do in Linux then in Windows.

Yeah, you're right. I forgot to mention how half-assed most of the "replacement" apps in Linux are, and how poorly they do their job.
