I use Windows, but there are a lot of good repair Linux tools for Windows out
there.
Linux has helped me in my business many a time!
Data Recovery, Passwords recovered; all done with Linux.
So, until you know what you are talking about, SHUT UP!

One can, of course, contemplate whether one hates any of
the following.
[1] The Linux developers. There's a few of them, and
standard troll tactics apparently is to describe them as
unwashed, unshaven yahoos with hippie hairdos and tie-dye
shirts. (IBM might quibble with you on that; they're a
fairly large supporter of Linux, at least the s390 variant.
I don't know what IBM dresscode requirements are in Armonk,
NY nowadays.)
[2] The Linux distro developers. This set is of course
more responsible for the tools developed around Linux
and Linux distros, than for developing Linux proper.
[3] The Linux module developers. I'm not sure exactly
how modules are developed and folded into the kernel,
but folded they are, at least on an occasional basis.
[4] The Linux users. Strictly speaking, these are very
few; most users of Linux distros will use the tools,
not the kernel directly -- which makes the user a tool
user. Those that do use Linux, of course, know about the
kernel-user boundary wall -- in Intel parlance, one might
call it a callgate or trapgate -- which is only enterable
by using the illegal instruction call (in user space)
int $0x80 (on the x86 variant; note that this syntax is
slightly different from the official INT 80H syntax in
MASM, which is probably more familiar to most).
[5] Freeware developers and users. These overlap but are not
concident with the set of Linux developers and users. KDE
and Gnome in particular can be built on any Unix+X system,
and used there.
So swallow a chill pill and swab that thing with some soap.
It'll heal better.

This is somewhat amusing in certain contexts; x86-64
Linux support in particular came out well before Windows,
and Windows still cannot support IBM's z-Series, ARM
microprocessors, or 680x0-based equipment. PPC, yes.
(I think.)
I believe Linux also supported a certain RAID controller
first. I do not know whether Vista and nVidia have kissed
and made up even yet...and it's been how long since Vista's
release?? To be sure, www.nvidia.com readily coughs
up a Vista-32 driver for nVidia for the GeForce 8 GPU.
However, there is no Vista driver for the GeForce FX 5100,
or for the GeForce FX 5500 -- which I think is what I have.
Buy a new card, I guess, if I really want to run Vista on
my 512 MB Athlon 1.4 MHz....though why I'd want to shell
out $349 for Windows Vista Ultimate Edition [I can't use
an upgrade on that particular machine] is far from clear.
Go ahead, try to convince me I need Vista. I dare you... ;-)
[*] in case you're wondering, the term is a combination of
Windows + troll + drool. If they're going to insult
my favorite OS...well...at least you know my biases
now, but I don't like to delve into personal vindictiveness
unless it's really really obvious that the poster is an
non-educatable idiot.

If you are really WANT to have a MISERABLE Linux experience:
- Buy a machine with DirectX-10 video cards - sure to be Linux
Hostile
- Download a Debian release from a suspicious mirror - preferably an
old release.
- Don't ask anyone for help, and don't let anyone know you are
trying Linux.
- Don't read any instructions.
- Don't back up any of your Windows data.
- Don't shrink your windows partition (wipe it out).
- Don't spend more than 8 hours doing the installation.
- Don't use the defaults.
- Don't actually use any of the applications for more than 30
minutes.
- Only look at applications that are most similar to Windows
applications.
When you are done with your 8 hours of unguided self-sabotaged
installation, and your 30-90 minutes of actual use, compare this with
your 15 years of experience with Windows, and post your "expert
opinion" that Linux is "Unfit for human consumption" to COLA
newsgroups, as well as as many other blogs, diggs, and feedbacks as
possible.
Then send a bill to Microsoft - you should ask for about $10,000 and
see what they do as a counter-offer. Send them copies of all your
anti-Linux tirades.

<Do you think I care about this? If you like Linux, then use it. I got
Linus too, because it's no big deal. The Linux O/S and MS O/S are just
