@ORB
don’t worry buddy I read your last post … sorry for any offense …
I think I didn’t curse directly …
Just one instance “crappy os” …

>>> Just use both when needed.
I was doing that from last 2 years … but now I think I don’t really need it anymore … and even if I … I’ll use it in Virtual machine

Dont know whats the problem with u guys.

I did hav stupid problems with windows.
but linux is no less, my FC4 keeps hanging in my lab system but my windows runs like charm, whats the answer 2 that? FC4 32bit is supposed 2 b the stable most.

But i never crib that that OS sux or something. an OS can never meet a single person’s needs, its as simple as that.

Just use both when needed.

somewhat similar thing happened to me a week back. one fine day, my windows just stopped booting although i hadn’t used it for long. it left me with no choice but to reinstall win.
but actually it made me happy, i got 20 more gbs to store movies

I had a similar experience with Windows a little over two years ago. It push me over the edge to Linux. What I liked about your story and why I’m commenting is this: “I think this is going to happen to everyone sometime down the line.” Yes, as the XP machines continue dieing, and users have grown weary of reinstalling or paying some tech guy $75 to “fix” their computer, we’ll begin to see a steady increase in Linux users.

yeah, i agree with you @gen bord… both are built for their own separate purposes, and are good at just that.
if you expect to try coding in windows.. you’ll manage but won’t be as good as in Linux. Similar argument holds (of course, in reverse) for gaming.
I use windows and opensuse and i’m proud of the both :O)

whats windows? its fine once in a while but with more games coming for linux who cares now anyways. btw, aoe runs fine under wine, just a little tweaking needed for network play. try it out.
