Linux: That do you think your message is displayed on the net with? MS, no not a chance. You see and work with Linux everyday and don't have enough neurons rubbing together to know it. The web runs on *nix not MS. Get your head out of the sand.; Posted by: AZflyman Posted on: 03/22/06 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use

Thanks buddy Real World | 03/22/06

Better translation: tic swayback | 03/22/06

You really should refrain nomorems | 03/22/06

Much cheaper? ajole | 03/22/06

yes, cheaper Mr_Dave | 03/22/06

More misinformation... MacCanuck | 03/22/06

No one cares about TCO or ROI for home Real World | 03/22/06

Noone uses Mac in the business world? lengua99 | 03/22/06

Right Real World | 03/23/06

marketshare is such a lame and overused argument mdsmedia | 03/22/06

Marketshare figures RJCorfield | 03/23/06

Market share counts in the job market Mark Miller | 03/23/06

Cost is cost MacCanuck | 03/22/06

You can declare all you want MacCanuck | 03/22/06

Let's compare plumnilly | 03/23/06

mjb...don't talk about cost, then dismiss Linux!! mdsmedia | 03/22/06

Agreed, so why do they even argue cost? ajole | 03/22/06

No arguement to most of that... mdsmedia | 03/22/06

Slow down, Scooter Real World | 03/23/06

Out of curiosity java.user | 03/21/06

Because they are stupid bobiroc | 03/21/06

pearls before swine buddhistMonkey | 03/21/06

Two words for you... NonZealot | 03/22/06

That's what I keep saying they keep saying! ajole | 03/22/06

No...your understanding of the analogy sucks mdsmedia | 03/22/06

Cracking Up CodeBubba | 03/22/06

Apples to Oranges bobiroc | 03/22/06

Wrong Statement mrlinux | 03/22/06

Sounds like bobiroc is grasping for a reason why he is so jealous. nomorems | 03/22/06

You do the same bobiroc | 03/22/06

At least the cars can actually PROVE they are faster. ajole | 03/22/06

Why, why, why? tic swayback | 03/22/06

simple reasons Rick_K | 03/22/06

What a stupid analogy! NonZealot | 03/22/06

Again, nomorems | 03/22/06

Again, you are wrong NonZealot | 03/22/06

Sorry NonZealot U B wrong! Linux Guy 1000 | 03/22/06

Linux guy, you need to read the man page NonZealot | 03/22/06

RE: Sorry NonZealot U B wrong! Linux User 147560 | 03/22/06

"NonZealot" you need to read this mdsmedia | 03/22/06

You need to change your nickname!! mdsmedia | 03/22/06

Simple Minded or close minded bobiroc | 03/22/06

Care to try that again...? Wolfie2K3 | 03/22/06

Yeah he was a bit excessive, but you're better than this... ajole | 03/22/06

ummm...be careful what you pray for...you just might get it. mdsmedia | 03/22/06

You'd still be using DOS or Windows 3.1 GoPower | 03/23/06

True, computer buyers don't care that much Mark Miller | 03/21/06

Missing the point tic swayback | 03/22/06

I'd love to see an objective review ajole | 03/22/06

Microsoft is much more than Windows NonZealot | 03/22/06

There's an idea ajole | 03/22/06

NZ, someone has stolen your log-in tic swayback | 03/22/06

Say it ain't so!! NonZealot | 03/22/06

I agree..not to put more features on... mdsmedia | 03/22/06

Not really java.user | 03/22/06

I'm just curious why you would think that MS would delay Vista for OSX 10.5 nomorems | 03/22/06

Sure java.user | 03/22/06

if you're so curious, why cant you see?? mdsmedia | 03/22/06
