I wish I was a nerd, I'd have switched to Linux by now.


Nothing complicated about Linux. It's just a piss poor OS for most uses because most popular programs aren't exactly compatible.

I know I can use Firefox and I know I can't really play games (not that I do anyway).

I also don't know if I'd want to convert this computer or get a new one (we have a $200 Windows XP computer for sale at work with 160 GB of disc space and 1GB of RAM, which is far better than my computer.) Also, better video cards, sound cards, everything. It even has 9 USB ports. No monitor, but everything else. I just don't have $200 and I don't need it, my computer is fine.

I also have very little clue on the fate of my files, I guess I could back them up on my pile of SD cards.

There's a bunch of literature I got half way through before asking myself if I just want a different background image.

Linux is to computers what kit-cars are to motor heads. Don't sell yourself short because you're more interested in using your computer as opposed to spending countless hours on 4chan discussing the pros and cons of the latest open source update.

Linux is for guys who don't date...at all. :lol:

I'm happy to hear that at least in this regard, you're doing just fine. R=UP

I've also considered Apple.

No wait, fuck Apple.

God dammit, the real reason I wanted to try Linux is I want to build my own build, except I am in no way qualified to do that. :lol: So sadly it won't be happening because I'm a little stubborn about the versions of Linux that are out there.

I'll probably end up going to Windows 7. I hope not, it'll depress me.

I think a polite gesture would be if they started putting the seat up.

Air spray some of this stuff over Tehran. If it makes the thugs wimps thats great.

If it makes an IR guard about to beat somebody to death to think that the person he is going to destroy is a human being that great.

Convert your old comp to Linux. It runs better on older systems than Windows does. I have an old XP box that I converted to a Linux server.

Oh good lord...

They're already frosting their tips, using anti aging under eye cream, packing man purses, and now this. Too many more "breakthroughs" and they'll start menstruating.

Gezus... leave us a few good men! (You know - real ones).

The moment they can bare their own children, we don't have to put up with them anymore, and just "use" them for the fun part :D
