Are Windows Users Scared

measekite - 29 May 2008 16:46 GMT I was thinking that Windows users are paranoid or maybe outright scared. If you mention Dual Boot in any Linux group the users listen to what is said and many take that into consideration and in fact dual boot there computers when there is an advantage for them.
Maybe they recognize that notwithstanding Linux being a better and more true (Unix based) operating system that Windows does have a place and may benefit them in many areas.
But it is many of the Windows proponents that want to treat Windows like a religion. The mere mention of dual boot sends many of them in a tizzy. And the lower life ones start running their filthy mouth for they have nothing else to say for that requires intelligence.
You see there are many things that Windows is lacking where a dual boot to a Linux OS may be of benefit. I was curious about Linux and was really getting fed up with wasting a lot of money on Windows software every time I wanted to improve my system.
The first thing I did was run the nondestructive live CD using the Ubuntu distro. I thought it had possibilities so I then installed it as a dual boot. After a month I found myself going to Windows about once a week and usually for programming functions and photography.
Now I never go to Windows unless I am working or need to some special function where I need to use Windows software.
Still the issue is why do Linux users accept dual boot and do not go into a tizzy while users who prefer Windows have a tizzy at the mention of dual boot. Everyone, who even favors Windows, knows that the OS has many security issues, locks up frequently, has poor memory management, is full of buffer overflows, requires frequent reboots, and now is priced way to high. Then there is the inconvenient copy protection forced on to paying customers by Microsoft who treats their customers like second class citizens. Then there is the issue of little or no support.

Then there is the issue of little or no support. More than a few of the people helping in this newsgroup do dual boot to another OS, in some cases Linux. There are also some here who work almost exclusively on Macs..
BUT, this is a Microsoft Vista newsgroup. People come here to help and be helped with Microsoft Vista. That surely can't be beyond your comprehension?

Which is why many recommend nuking Vista and dual booting with XP and Ubuntu. This *is* help, Mike, just not the help you like and is obviously way beyond your comprehension.

You just don't have the ability to realize that fact. Ubuntu is nothing but a blip on the radar and is just a TOY OS used by teenage kids who can't get dates. Ubuntu is FREE and most people don't want it. Those that think Ubuntu is worth anything, download it and install it. Once they figure out what a piece of crap Ubuntu is, they quickly remove it from their PC and stick with what they have. Windows.
You are just an annoying troll. Why not go help people in the ubuntu forums? They surely need help trying to get their crappy Ubuntu working.

Since this is a GENERAL Vista group it should dawn on the dimmer bulbs of this group that some may come here before buying or upgrading. Accordingly Vista's negative aspects and alternatives platforms are appropriate topics. Shame the fanboy club is so thin skinned and anal they can't handle anyone pointing out Vista failings. Why is that Mike?

Somebody else that's incapable of exercising self control. Last time I checked it was still impossible for anyone to force you to read anyone's post. You do so at your own free will. So if you're annoyed by some poster or topic all that says about you is you have no will power. A common ailment that inflicts many in newsgroups.
Damn funny if you ask me. You want somebody to control who posts what because you have no control yourself over what you decide to read.

Most Vista users have heard of Linux and want NOTHING to do with that piece of crap. Hence, your annoying spamming each and every day does nothing to get users to switch to an OS that is WORTHLESS. Ubuntu is FREE and nobody wants it. Gotta tell you something. Actually, that tells people with brains something as Alias, Ray, and Adam do not have brains worth anything.
Adam Albright - 29 May 2008 21:12 GMT >The dribble that Alias typed: > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >You are full of crap. Most Vista users have heard of Linux and want NOTHING >to do with that piece of crap. If true (it isn't) then you would be getting exiting for nothing. Your logic makes absolutely no sense. Since you can't seem to stop bitching about Alias it proves two things. #1 He really gets to you and # 2 it leads one to believe you're really a control freak that thinks he has some right to decide who gets to say what in a public newsgroup. Sorry bub, that isn't how Usenet works.
If Alias was trying to spam this newsgroup with some qet rich quick scheme or anything really off-topic, then maybe you'd have a point. Since he's simply bringing up an alternative to Vista some may be interested in hearing about it. As far as being off-topic your endless bitching about Alias and your non stop juvenile comments is far more disruptive as is Frank's constant rants. Of course I'd never expect either of your dim bulbs to "get it".
>Hence, your annoying spamming each and every >day does nothing to get users to switch to an OS that is WORTHLESS. The real issue is buttheads like you not having the mental skills to skip over posts and posters that clearly bug you. Why do you suppose you lack such elementary skills?

I certainly see no reason for it, since there are thousands of newsgroups and other forums devoted to Linux.
>> If people want to revert back to >> XP, there are Microsoft XP newsgroups and Linux forums. > >Most Vista users have never heard of Linux or Ubuntu. Hence, my noble >mission. Get used to it. This is simply not true. Linux is all over the Web. If they do not know about it, they simply don't surf the Web very often. And I do not believe they aren't surfing the Web.
They know about it, for sure, but simply do not act on what they've read, since Linux is just not a good Desktop system. PERIOD.
I am sure most users of these Microsoft groups are already used to your Anti-Microsoft Linux "advocacy" by now.
"Alias", while your "misson" may or may not be noble, it is certainly condemned to failure, since Linux is NOT yet a decent Desktop OS, for the simple fact that MOST of it's apps are always in a continual state of alpha or beta, and are usually very buggy.
Additionally, it is MUCH harder to install software/hardware in Linux than it is in Windows.
Windows users simply DON'T like configuring their hardware using text-mode files.
I am sure folks like yourself love Linux. But Windows users do not like Linux, since it is so difficult to configure and maintain.
Until Linux has the ease of operation of Windows, it will remain in the nether-world of hobbyists, where it properly belongs, anyway.

For the same reason somebody suggesting Tylenol or Aleve in a group discussing aspirin.
People need to broaden their horizons. For example, most people have heard of Adobe's Photoshop and few would doubt it is the most used choice of professionals. I have it, but I also recommend GIMP which was developed originally on the Linux platform and later ported to Windows. It is in many respects every bit as good as Photoshop in a few areas even better. It's totally free. If nobody mentioned it in groups previously devoted to other software products it would have died on the vine. That would have been a shame.
The point that zooms over the heads of the Microsoft faithful is for some people, I dare say for many, Vista or any form of Windows isn't necessary. So why shouldn't people be aware of alternatives?
While Alias constantly beating the drum for a particular flavor of Linux may be annoying to some it isn't any more so than the hot headed clowns that have some need to attack him and others for speaking out against Vista's flaws. Noise is noise.
Remember this is a PUBLIC newsgroup. Nobody is in charge and any dope that attempts to impose rules or tries to act like they're in charge is fair game to me. It should be obvious by now I'm pretty good at defrocking trolls, exposing fools and other nut jobs that hang out in newsgroups like this. Like I've said many times, it's just a hobby, one I enjoy ;-)

Now, maybe if you install it and use it for awhile, you can clear up your ignorance. Or do you believe the FUD too much and that prevents you from having an open mind?

If you mention Dual Boot in any Linux group the users [quoted text clipped - 125 lines] > Sorry, but more FUD, lies and ignorance. Ubuntu is more user friendly > than XP or Vista. Right! Here is an example of WinCrap. I could not write to a file in a folder because they were read only. So I went into MyComputer / Explorer and found the folder. I then went to properties and found it was marked read only. I then unclicked read only and got a dialog box asking me to confirm and wanting to know if the change should be applied to all files and sub folders. I clicked on yes and OK and the folder and file appeared to be unchecked for read only. I then went back into properties for the folder that was supposed to be writable and the read only box was checked again.
This is the typical crap you waste your time on in Windows. You do not have these kind of problem with Linux.
Most of the issues with Linux is lack of good support from Hardware Vendors. You really need to be selective. But once you get all working it just runs and runs.

Again, the issue is clear enough. The fanboy crowd simply goes nuts if anyone exposes Vista for what it is... If Vista was half as good as some claim then you wouldn't get so upset. It is BECAUSE Vista has so many faults that you really get upset and don't want anybody talking about it. This of course is what drives nut cases like Frank crazy.

Then there is the issue of little or no support. Do you really think that most people here want to dual boot to Linux? Give it a rest. If you want to play with Linux then play. Window users are not scared of Linux or that Piece of crap OS, Ubuntu. Just a blip on the radar at Microsoft. Remember, Linux/Ubuntu is FREE and nobody wants it. That has got to tell you that it's a piece of crap.
