You've posted this three times, speaking of wasting bandwidth. In fact
most of your messages are wasted bandwidth being as you never contribute
anything worthwhile and your ill informed posts create confusion and are
an irresponsible waste of server space. You should be more considerate and
stop posting drivel.

I'm waiting for you to actually address my previous post instead of the
usual BS you post:

I read the subject lines.. if I see something posted I dont repost it..

but if you expect me to do a search for keywords to check if something is
posted, its not gonna happen..

anway this was important.. having it posted twice is not a bad idea... :)

Yes, it is. It creates confusion and is an irresponsible waste of server
space. You should be more considerate.

Except with the preinstalled Linux machines, I'm sure the consumer did their
homework. They know it's free, they are just paying to have it installed.
They know what distro it is. They know more about it. Educated consumer vs.
the Class Action Ignorant Consumer.

If someone buys a computer (Say, Celeron 32Bit), and it says "Vista
Capable", do they expect it to run 64Bit Vista Ultimate? Would they be
pissed if it didn't? I'd hope not.

Much agreed. A good example would be the average car buyer versus the
average motorcycle buyer. Ask a Chrystler owner about anything under the
hood of their Pacifica and you'll likely get a blank stare. Ask a Harley
owner about the shiny thing "right there" and you have yourself a two hour
conversation.

Windows enthusiasts are mainstream. They take their machines for granted
because in the past they simply work and that's all they care about. Linux
enthusiasts enjoy the inner workings. They are simply more informed.

"They take their machines for granted..."
As well as their education on the matter and that's the consumers fault.

Celeron? Is that one of those new planets after Pluto? 64Bit? Is that how
long it takes to get to Celeron? Wait...why doesn't Ultiamte work!?!?!? Oh
Lawyer!!!!

Idiot! Anybody that shares your narrow views you say give good
replies, those that have different opinions you try to label as dumb.

Wow!

1. I only think you and alias are pointless. So that's two for me.
2. You have called countless people stupid and dumb.

I think you have me confused with yourself.

Try again adam.

Wait, want proof?

Stephan Rose and I hardly ever see eye to eye. Yet we have perfectly good
conversations and debates. The difference between Stephan and you is that
you act like a child and rant all the time plus are blind to anything anyone
tells you.

Wait, want more proof?

When you thought Kerry Brown was completely agreeing with you, you carried
on a normal conversation with her. When she corrected you later on and let
you know you might have misunderstood what she was saying and that she did
in fact disagree with you a little you turned on her like a rabid dog. You
then later spouted your usual MVPs suck propaganda straight in her
direction.

How's the view from down there adam?

Narrow views? I just don't see it on that one. I've agreed with a few from
another Vista nay-sayer in here (just a few out of the MANY). I respect your
opinion, mine is just different than yours on this one.

Lets talk about Ford vs. Chevy and the many problems with each (it'd be a
lot worse than the Vista vs. everything else).

But, I enjoy a good arguement as long as you can back up your opinion. If
you don't like something, you must have a reason why... :)

I have called dummies; dumb. You are exhibit A, but for sure you're
not alone in your dumbness, as evidenced by the crap others posted
here.

Her? And you ask why I call you a dummy.

If female, the spelling is usually Kerri, but Kerry can be male or
female. As usual, I'm just pulling your chain, to get a response out
of you and you never disappoint Justin. You ALWAYS rise to the bait.
When she corrected you later on and let
you know you might have misunderstood what she was saying and that she did
in fact disagree with you a little you turned on her like a rabid dog.

You have some imagination kid.

Not even adam can deny facts. Everyone can see your shameful actions in the
thread, "Watch the fan boys get their shorts all bunched up over another
Vista blunder"

Although the magic question remains. WHY do you CONSTANT think of boys and
their shorts?
