Guys - you know what - you are all correct in many areas of the OS wars.

Ya know what the beauty is? You all have choices

It is very easy to stand on the OS Soap Box and say they other guy is evil. But the beauty is you all have choice. Mainstream CHOICE.

Most users I support, home, business, whatever, would be incapable of running Linux. Some would. Most office infrastructures would be mistaken to run Linux, some would be OK.

What I like is that I can run some Linux in a MS infrastructure to do things cheaply and often better than MS can do them. MAC can do some things well (easily) that MS and Linux do but there are also things that MAC is woefully inadequate in, especially in a business environment.

Having supported all three and used all three (though least on the MAC for personal usage) they ALL have their roles and places.

One thing though, MAC does have the best commercials....

So make things here your personal choices but don't take them personal - thanks!

In a nutshell, there is lots of good

Its been a rough two weeks for me and that's no excuse for the profane crap I spewed forth.

My only issue here is that I know nothing about OSs and I just like Ubuntu and I'm not a big corperate guy.All I wanted to do is let folks know about the new release.I don't live in my mom's basement as she's been dead for 30yrs.Most of my life has been spent working in the trades and I'm a Vet.Everything I have I've busted ass for including the home I now own.So I took great exception to Likwid's interpretation of me and said some extremely horrible things which thankfully TDF took care of.

The only thing I apoligize for here is myself.Can't apoligize to my fellow member as I don't believe he deserves it.

I've said my piece and am done with this thread.
man. the boxing kitty couldn't even alleviate the mood.
