Wrong answer. The correct answer is: Because Alias is a total moronic

asshole.



Make the correction in your files.

That's a good thing. Most don't need to hear about it and the majority of

the ones who have heard about it are sorry.

Now that is the only true thing you have posted today.

Sure you can do e-mail with that SHITTY Ubuntu.

You can even surf the web with that SHITTY Ubuntu.



> Burn CDs.



It might take you awhile to get it right. Those Open Sores programs are

trying hard.





> Rip CDs.



Burn. Rip. Burn. Rip. You need to find the right Open Sores program

that MAY work or may not work.

That is what your IPOD is for.

That is what your TV is for.

Maybe calculate a few numbers and align the numbers in the columns.

HA HA HA. Good luck. Nobody wants a presentation of Ubuntu. Oops.



> Newsgroups.



Alias is famous for using that SHITTY Ubuntu to access newsgroups to try and

get people to try Open Sores software.



> HTML editing.



Very basic editing.





> Games like Chess, Tetris, all kinds of solitaire, etc.



Ubuntu can't be used for real work so all you can do is play simple games.

For real games use a PC or XBOX or PS3 or Wii.





> Make videos.



That is what your video camera is for. For video editing, use Windows

solutions. Open Sores solutions will drive you "nucking futs".





> Download photos from a camera and organize them.



BFD. HA HA HA HA..







> Translations.



Ubuntu can't do that.



> Use a dictionary



Browse the web and you can find spelling. Ubuntu can't do that.

That is what your keyboard is for! LOL!

Very very simple edits. Maybe adjust brightness and contrast. Oops.

Who the fuck would want to take a screenshot of Ubuntu? Oh, maybe the

spinning cube! LOL!

Maybe.

A simple database with maybe 100 entries.

I think Frank hit it on the head! Go crawl back into your hole and smoke

more hash!



No Linux Distro will EVER be a threat to Windows. Like I said before, Linux

is more of a hobby OS, but if you use it for basic internet surfing only

it's not that bad, except if you need to load flash or most Firefox

plug-ins, then it is painful to use.

I've never had a problem with Flash or any other plugins for FF

under Linux. I suspect most don't have a problem.



FF is a mature cross-platform product, just like Thnderbird.



At least pick out some application that really does have

widespread problems.

Oh yeah.....So why then did MS continue selling XP for Netbooks

only, and then, cut the price of it, nearly giving it away ?

And you do?

I don't think so. So far, you've demonstrated zero consumer market

knowledge in here.

Zero.

But you don't really know do you? if you're so enthralled and

Let's see now. Linux has been free for 20+ years and still is a blip on the

radar. Oops.



Ubuntu has been free for years yet most reject Ubuntu as garbage. I think

Windows is safe. LOL!

Because, unlike what you or your wannabee protege' want

everyone to believe, I haven't had to learn too much about

Linux.



I know you don't believe it, but *my personal experience*

using both Ubuntu & Kubuntu, hasn't resulted in hours and

hours trying to troubleshoot some obscure problems. I haven't

had to compile drivers, or any applications I've tried for

that matter.



I haven't had to learn a lot or troubleshoot much at all

because everything pretty much workes out of the box.



Therefore, I don't have much to offer in the way of help in

that regard.
