speak for yourself. I'd *like* to have my desktop stay up for as long as
i'm going to use it. I let my system stay on overnight even if i'm not
using it as there is no reason why i should turn it off and wait for it
to boot up again the next day when I decide i want to use it.
Unfortunately Windows likes to take *a lot* of breaks and therefore I
have to reboot if i want to keep doing what i was in the middle of doing
before the whole system went down b/c of one program croaked. Even if
the system doesn't crash I have to reboot b/c Windows likes using up
resources but doesn't like giving them back and of course after a while
my System resources are "less than 2%".

   ... a standar directory scheme and configuration files location
and syntax and an universal installation method. I think these two
things are big lacks nowadays. Not advocating Windows at all,
just saying to you what I think are important things I'd like to have
at my GNU/Linux. There are more, but for now, those two are
enough, what do you think ?

I don't know.  I have a USB mousewheel running fine with
KDE2/Netscape/FreeBSD.  One of the problems with Linux is that they
never document anything.  Manpages a year or so behind, HOWTOs that
apply to every distribution except the one you're using, etc.  Then if
you can't figure anything out, you are labeled as dumb and tossed aside
by the kids who got their machines to work right the first time with
Linux through some weird alignment of the planets.  That's the problem
with the Linux community.  If you don't know something, you are dumb and
don't deserve to use Linux in the first place.

if you don't like what people say about Mandrake  ( i said mandrake mind
you, not linux) then why did you buy it?  

also, we've seen you complain about linux in general so if u don't like
it why do you use it?  please answer. i've love to hear this one.

I don't follow you. Where is the compromise you must seek between making
it easy to use and making it not crappy? Unstability comes from bad
design, not from a nice desktop.

Let some competition arise and you'll have it both ways. There's no
technical reason not to. Under monopoly condition MS is the rule. And MS
is crappy.

Allow me to interject some personal experience.

My OS/2 emulation web site is hosted by the kind folks at VintageGaming.com. 
They gave me unlimited space and my own domain name.  They were running on a
reliable old Solaris box which never gave me one ounce of trouble.

Recently, they decided it would be a great idea to take this smoothly working
setup and install Win2K as the web server in its place.  I now had to change
my content in two ways:

1. My index.html page had to become default.htm (requiring changes in all
   of the sub-pages that link back to this page)
2. All of the CGI stuff I was using had to be canned, rebuilt, or replaced

If that was the extent of the trouble, it would have been inconvenient, but
tolerable, but it wasn't.  Take a look now at where
http://emuos2.vintagegaming.com is now.  Or even
http://www.vintagegaming.com.  Can't reach it, can you?  It's been like this
on and off for 2 weeks.  It has been down more than it has been up by a ratio
of 100:1.

Needless to say, I'm less than impressed.

My PC has enjoyed more connectivity and uptime than this web server, and I run
beta drivers and do risky development and testing work on it.  I'd serve the
page right off of my PC, but I'm not guaranteed a static IP address, so it
wouldn't work too well.

My advice to webmasters:  If it ain't broke, don't fix it.  If it is broke,
don't fix it with Win2K.

For $10.00 or so why not?
Using it for even 10 minutes allows me to appreciate Windows so much
more. 
It's like having to drive one of those awful Ford Taurus's that Hertz
always seems to rent me when I travel on business, and then getting

Someday, maybe, possibly, Linux might actually turn into a swan
instead of being the ugly duckling that it currently is.

If I'm still alive if / when that happens, I'm 40 now, I'd like to be
one of the first to experience it.

Personally I'd rather have a blank CDR than one with Linux on it. At
least a blank is useful to me, unlike Linux.

I ordered a copy because it is certainly cheap enough, and I like to
see how the other half is suffering. You'll be back to Windows soon
Pete, just like you did last time.

All in good time. All in good time.

I did no such thing.

I fulfilled all of the requirements for my degree in math, science,
and engineering courses...to the extent that if I were to take any more
math, science, or engineering, Purdue won't grant me credit for them

All that I have left is a few mickey-mouse electives....which

Let's all go to Loren's apartment in the middle of the night,
and violate the laws against:

        Breaking and Entering
        Home invasion
        Theft
        Murder

        and if we can find a desperate fag....
        he can sodomize you, too.



Sound fun, Loren?
