If you are not stupid, you never get a virus on Windows either.

Some people prefer Windows. Others Macs or Linux.

Life goes on.

Does anyone here, who is familiar with Linux, able to help me resolve my aMSN problem?

Many thanks.

what an insightful comment, just the kind of thing i'd expect you to come out with. There is more to being "good" that supposed invulnerability to viruses.

In a way, using Linux is a bit like talking with barcode on here. It looks normal enough, but it takes quite a lot of effort to get things done.

Rather a pointless and inconsequential dig at Linux which lacked any basis in fact.

You ever tried getting a wireless card to work in Mandriva 2007? Or changed your graphics card after configuring X? Things that should happen simply don't, and I'm willing to bet I know a damn sight more than you about it.

I often think only a true idiot would come out with that particular argument.


Today I was proven correct.
Yeah! Macs are obviously better coz they look nicer!
