I can see you don't let the facts interfere with your opinion, as usual.

I don't know why you and your buds insist on trying to perpetuate a

totally debunked myth. Ubuntu or any other Linux may not be for everyone,

but it is certainly far from worthless. Many individuals and corporations

find it to be every bit as useful as win7.

Ubuntu has been free for years, yet it still is on less than one percent of

the desktops out there. Pretty damn useful if you ask me! Imagine a free

product that most reject. Now Windows 7 has been out less than a year and

is on about 90 million machines!



Just think. In 10 years, Linux will have 1.5% of the market! LOL!

But the amount of machines has increased immensely so every year that

one per cent are more computers. Fail math, nymshifter?

Most don't know about it. One cannot reject that which one doesn't know

anything about, dumb fuck.

And bought by people, most of whom don't know any better and get it

preinstalled on their HP, Dell, etc.

Which, if true, would mean over 20 million happy users.



Got any more FUD and lies you care to share now that you've proved you

Didn't fail math. Is your ill informed opinion that the number has

increased immensely. Look at the data.

But the ones that know about it, most reject it within days. You would

think word about a free operating system would spread like wildfire to

people who don't know about Ubuntu but guess what? Word isn't spreading

very fast. Most don't like Ubuntu. Get over it.



The facts are the facts. Don't believe? I don't give a rats ass.

Most people want an OS that works. Windows 7 does just that. There is no

need to worry about another system when what they have does the job. Oops.

Another ill informed opinion. Maybe 10 million have downloaded that

INFERIOR OS that most see as a TOY, but the number of users who use that

SHITTY Ubuntu is increasing at a very small number. Get over it.

Sorry. Didn't lie. The facts prove my statements. You have blinders on as

usual. Look at you. You are trying to shove Ubuntu down our throats in the

Windows 7 forum. How desperate can you be?



You are very very confused (and stoned)

And the data says that there are a helluva lot more computers now than

in 2004 so the one percent is many more machines. Get it yet, dumb fuck?

Word of mouth takes time but once it gets rolling, it takes off. I see

Ubuntu machines in every single computer store here. A year ago I didn't.

You and Frank aren't "most'.

In the USA, perhaps, as most US citizens are not very computer savvy. In

Europe and elsewhere, it's a different story. Most people here buy

computers to suit, not some HP or Dell crap laden with crap ware.

I am merely informing. Those who can think for themselves, will check it

out. Those who are stupid assholes like you won't and we would actually

prefer that you stick with Windows.

I am neither confused or stoned but that won't stop you from lying and

showing everyone that you have no principles.

Doesn't matter if there are more machines. We all know that there are more

Ubuntu users (sorry sacks) but the percentage is still LOW. Get it you dumb

fuck?

The people you know are probably known drug users and probably don't give a

shit about an OS. I am talking about the general population of computer

users, not a handful of misfits you are associated with.

In EMEA the top sales company is Acer who replaced HP as #1 in that region

Tell me that Acer doesn't load up their boxes with tons of crapware just

That's an acronym for many things:



European Medicines Agency



European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products



European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products



European Medicines Evaluation Agency



Europe, Middle East and Asia (market area)



Extended Monthly Evacuation Allowance



European Music Educators Association



To which are you referring?

Oh dear, it's changing the subject to lap tops. Wipe drive. Install

Ubuntu. Problem solved for the cost of a CD. Now, back to the subject at

hand, the savvyness of US citizens vs. Europe. Care to comment on that

or just desperately look for *something* to discredit me so you don't

have to really reply to content?
