You're behind the times. Macs, PCs and Linux can and do use GUIs. Linux

isn't just for geeks any more than Windows is.

The purpose of Linux was to be a free OS.



https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/rhasan/linux/



Linux itself *IS* different from Windows....a lot different.



Linux is *NOT* the GUI. That is a Linux desktop package.



The GUI portion you see is developed by other groups. The big

ones are KDE, GNOME, Xfce, and Enlightenment.



They each have their own features, and their own 'look'.

No he isn't. He is giving his opinion of you. Most of us agree with that

opinion. You really are a FUCKING IDIOT. By the way IDIOT, take a look at

the stats: LINUX hovers around 1%.



http://marketshare.hitslink.com/operating-system-market-share.aspx?qprid=10



That means Ubuntu is less than that. Could be 0.00003%. Imagine a FREE OS

that has been FREE for years and is still a BLIP on the radar. Must be a

pretty SHITTY product that most reject Linux/Ubuntu! Live with it.

BULLSHIT. Windows is used by corporate America and most of the home users.

Linux is for geeks who can't get laid and have no social skills.

No, Frank, Drew and "Bill" are the trolls. Suggesting an alternative to

Windows 7 is 100% on topic. I help people here and on other news groups.

Oops!

You are either the dumbest POS to ever post or else you think everyone

in here is dumber than you are. The sign on the door says Windows 7 and

nothing about linux. Posting about other OS's is OT.

Got it shit-for-brains?



I help people here and on other news groups.

The only troll here is you Dumbass! We post topics or reply to topics about

windows as do all the rest that post here! You are the only TROLL who

specifically posts about a operating system that has nothing to do with

windows!.. You deny the fact that you are a troll which in itself makes you

a bigger dumbass!! Then you accuse others who respond to your useless posts

about nothing pertinent to windows which in turn makes you the biggest

dumbass! The bottom line here is you are either a dumbass a bigger dumbass

or the biggest dumbass which do you prefer!! What part of WINDOWS NEWSGROUP

Offering an alternative to Windows is on topic whether you agree with it

or like it. This is an .alt group. If you can't stand the heat, get the

Your inane insults don't change the fact that I'm right and offer an

alternative to Windows 7 is on topic. I'm sure I am old enough to be
