>y'all should use linux, it's much better


No games allowed?

No really, linux is great but sucks in native programs. I mean, honestly, who really thinks gimp is better than CS5 in any way?

Lol I agree Coca-Cola Man. Tried doing some video editing using Kdenlive, the linux alternatives really are not up to much - especially seeing as MLT is very buggy with 1080p AVHCD files. Gimp is great for being free, buts its no PS replacement.

The once I asked a Linux guru why all the coders do not pull together and make one good complete OS with good Apps, rather than 100s of distros plus half baked apps. It was like I had swore at his mother or something . Another Linux guy told me he likes having lots of distros as its ensures Linux will never become mainstream. What type of mentality is this...

"Glavens I like my distro becuase it allows me to compile linux for my 80286, and as an added bonus only 5 people use it"

My Atari ST is sleek, quiet, and grey. The OS and Hardware are all one being. They work together in perfect harmony. Ask yourself, how many modern OSes have a standard neon green desktop background? None, that's how many. If you're an atari user, you're obviously intelligent, and you'd know that the neon green background causes perfect harmony between your eyes and other colors. My Atari ST has NEVER CRASHED. Every floppy I put in runs perfectly. Just put it in, wait 17 minutes for it to load, and off you go. Oh and the mouse is brilliant. It is completely ergonomic and greyish beige. Are imacs greyish beige? No, didn't think so. How about PCs? Nope, PCs come in all sorts of bright colors. Bright colors are for steers and queers.

You can run DOSBox. And most roguelikes and browser games run better on linux than windows. That's all the games you need

Everything you've said here is absolutely true except for the mouse being ergonomic. It's far from it.
