  • All Windows users should know this ad, Kill Bill Tux (in this situation will be Windows and MS)

  • @rmadrid2001 I have made this video, but actually I'm using Windows as a main OS on my PC. (Now I have Ubuntu on it, but not Mandriva)

  • LINUX IS SHIT

  • @sanctusen666 That was a pretty intelligent comment

  • WTF you slowed the linux video down,

    my linux mint 9 (which is based on ubuntu) boots in 22 seconds,

    windows XP SP2 takes 1 minute and 53 seconds on the same PC.

  • @0M9H4X

    No, I did not slow it down. I had a bit slow computer, thats all :)

  • windows wins!!

  • my lubuntu opens up in about 22 seconds on a 4 year old laptop with no tweaks, windows takes much longer

  • who cares about boot time anyway? i don't use linux because it boots faster ( which mine does ), only fanboys care about such nonsense, besides, mandriva is a bloated noob distro. learn to install and customise a real distro like gentoo or arch then come back and try it again. hell even an ubuntu installation with no DM will boot in 5 seconds. ( discounting grub delay )
