You are wrong dude!!  This is not self proclamation; we, the linux don`t
need anything like this... cause, we have *many* stable and robust things to
use.

Which nVidia card are you using? I am using nVidia 8600GT in my laptop. So,
what do you say?? Debian, Ubuntu,Mandriva, Fedora 7 & 8, CentOS and even
Gentoo supports my card with all effects.

Lame statements? Which one do you call lame statement? Do you think that,
you are talking with babies!!!! What a crap!!

I think, it`s your laptop battery`s problem. You cannot blame any distro for
your battery!! I am using the most *battery hungry* laptop, Vaio; but i
don`t even have any problem regarding battery issue for Ubuntu.

Now don't tell me that binary-only-drivers are culprit here. I respect FSF's

Let`s share a very normal picture.  One of my friend is teaching computer to
her grandmother and there she ( grandmother) started her learning with
Ubuntu 7.10. One day, she sat infront of a Windows XP machine and totally
refuse to use that because of her so called "black and white type screen".

And of stability, Linux and Mac  also crash often.


Linux distros crashes often???? Are you out of your mind? What did you run
in your linux box??

That's a marketing policy. Don't mix it with technical merits/demerits.

That`s right. I respect license issue. But, because of your so called
"stability" of windows; i just stated one issue. :)
