Yep, that's what happens when you get a flood of Wintards trying to flee
Fista. They try Ubuntu but have a hard time losing all their old Wintard
habits. Eventually those who stick with it and purposely forget all the
bullshit Microsoft has taught them about computers, get to have a real
operating system running on their computers. It's called Ubuntu. You on
the
other hand, well <snort> should just stick with the toy operating system
you pretend to know so much about.

Of course Ubuntu will be as successful as that other much touted replacement
for Windows - Lindows/Linspire, no wait they are both doing, so badly that
Linspire has already had to form a "Technology Partnership" as announced on
the Linspire home page - pity they can' even get the link to work to the
announcement.
Linux on the home users desktop will continue to be nothing more then a
niche player for geeks and techies who want to "fight the power" the average
user who just wants things to work with software they buy and use everyday
in the office will still be best served by Windows.
(How well is Linspire doing on home users PCs? - go look at Wal-Mart one of
their flagship shippers of PCs with Linspire preinstalled - have a look on
their website - find many ? Well look hard enough and you'll find one -
hell it's not even a searchable option - why? because the ultimate consumer
store sells to the public what the public wants - and that is PCs with
Vista)[/QUOTE]
