"Ratings have been disabled for this video"

Hey, guess what button I was clicking?

[devo85x]

@Dummy838 lol I forgot I had even disabled them hahaha I used to do that (self esteem is much better now lol jk) but I completely forgot to change them all back

[iOSXthings]

Well you assuming that people want to spend their life finding drivers and things like that, I know I just want to use the programs and hardware and not waste time finding essential software just to run the hardware, OSX and Windows 7 FTW!

[devo85x]

@iOSXthings OSX and WIN 7 have just as many driver problems if not more than linux.

One thing to keep in mind: Not everyone likes Linux. I don't understand why not either, but it's true. And those who want to use Windows should by all means use Windows.

Just don't complain to me when you get infected, crash, lose data, etc.

[devo85x]

@CurtHowland The problem I have isn't with people who don't like linux. Trust me I know plenty of people that don't like it. The problem I have is the lies told by best buy that put people in a false mindset about something they don't have experience with.

@temporaldisplacement I do the same on my laptop and Linux is SOOOOO much faster and overall a better user experience

[AndrewDeLong]

I'm a MS user first, and a Linux user second. I have respect for both, because both have advantages and disadvantages. Windows is compatible with perhaps 99% of the peripherals out there, very little need to actually INSTALL drivers, merely update them. Linux (Ubuntu 11.10 for me) is catching up on that, but not quite there yet. Still, Ubuntu is quicker, just as stable, damn near virus free, and, of course, free.

I dual boot both, and I see no need to war on about either one.

Reason #1: Microsoft is a money whore, and they don't get paid if someone gets linux.

[benzcool000000]

One guy likes green one guy likes blue both Microsoft and Linux have contributed a great deal to the computing market as has Mac OSX why can't we all get along :P

[powerpop23]

LOL you tell us, taht Linux is so compatible, and you have never had any Problems with that, but need to boot to Windows to use your Microphone... LOL....

I've used Linux for 10 Years, and I'm back on Windows for exactly those reasons..... All the good software is also available for Windows, and Windows runs with much more Hardware, has about 1000 neet small utilities (with consistent gui!!), that I'd be missing out on on Linux... so here I go: Windows power user... P.S. my servers run Linux...

@devo85x

If you can't figure out a mac, then how the hell would you understand windows? Don't macs pride themselves on being more user-friendly (whatever the hell that means)?
