Is that serious

I got turned off at the title "FOR GOD, FREEDOM AND GEORGE W. BUSH - ONE NATION UNDER GOD : : U - S - A : (Love it or Leave it!)"

Very, very, very interesting link you've found there! I can hardly believe it!

Oh, and the programmable computer was invented in the UK which they got wrong

I've just checked out the main page of that site - I can hardly believe it.

Did you read the comments This blog must surely be a joke to wind people up?

Yes, Linux is a primative European clone; It is much less capable than Windows. In fact it omits features that were standard in Windows back in 1998; For example Linux has no built-in anti-virus or anti-spyware software.

You cannot even buy popular utilities like Norton Security to compensate for this fact. There are no tools for common tasks like defragging a hard disk. God knows what you would use to send a fax or make a website. You cannot even get Front Page for Linux.

Linux is that bad; The only explaination I can think for people using it is that it by-passes the protection given by American companies and the Dept of Homeland Security. It should be considered a terrorist program.

CL is right ... I can only assume they allow 'inmates' access to PCs in mental institutions over there ... maybe Alf knows.

Each time I think I'm warming to America I'm given a sharp reminder of how wealth and power doesn't naturally equate to intelligence

That blog defies comment, really.

If the article was about Microsoft i could just about understand it. May be that's why those bought up on a diet of MS & MacDonald's think anything free is bad?
