GEO? vs Cadillac? Try Tank vs station wagon
First of all windows is more like a station wagon that has to always be restarted and Linux is like a tank that never stops. The main reason the Linux tablet cost so much less is because the manufacture saves around a hundred dollars per unit sold, because of Microsoft?s patients on its stolen software. It is more than an uneducated guess to say that the hardware is cheap because it has Linux. I am on a XP tablet now but as soon as I can I am installing the Linux version. I want Stability, security, rights to change my OS and recompile, openoffice.org, Gimp, Quanta, C+ +, and for free. Microsoft?s software stinks. They made it to make money with pressures of dead lines and a feeling of greed deep in their hearts. People who create Linux and Linux applications, do it for their selves and others, not for greed. There is no severe pressure, just coding. So next time you start up your station wagon which you certainly paid to much for, think about the terms on which it was created and pray it will get you where your going safely. Maybe you could open the control panel and add and remove problems err programs. good luck.
