@leerees It's an Operating System and a third rate one at that, it's NOT the answer to all of humanities woes, get a little fucking perspective. I agree with your comment on Linux though.

[blade004]

@leerees Fucking hell mate, going by this comment you made "it's windows that will expand civilisation into a future where everything and anything speaks the same language" it looks like to you that Windows will fly us to another Spiral Galaxy, will cure Cancer, raise your Children, have sex with you in bed and perhaps as an optional extra will wipe your arse for you ;)

@leerees Windows works because it is the only choice most people have at work.

It is only the compromise between price and functionality that makes it the main choice at home as well. It remains a bloated half-assed effort (see Vista fiasco) that ignores a lot of basic user demands while trying very hard to lock in users to MS products. Let us hope that someone comes along to destroy this sub-par standard.

@RabidRat88 The reason windows works is because it reflects what people want out of a computer. What's the point in having a faster operating system if no 2 builds are compatible. Microsoft have realised a dream, universal compatability for the entire world, it's windows that will expand civilisation into a future where everything and anything speaks the same language. Instead of going against the grain Linux developers should have joined together and standardised their OS.

Notice how the singer needs to read the lyrics. I'm sure I would have managed without.

@RabidRat88

Your right on that mark as well. Linux needs to evolve more before it can be mainstream and it needs one central version to even have a chance at taking out Windows. But even if that happened, its still unlikely that it could do that, Microsoft has had the market way too long now, I don't see it changing.

[RabidRat88]

@snake2006 Linux has no hope as long as it refuses to evolve from it's Unix roots and move on like what Apple did with BSD. The lack of a standard hardware base makes it even less likely as you say, it just is a pipe dream. Someone needs to get Amiga or BeOS on ARM CPUs and do what Apple is doing but at half the price. Then Windows' share would start to drop significantly. The problem is also getting the business software to follow to entice people to switch over. That needs major bucks.

@raymangold22 I was talking about 1992, which was near the downfall of amiga ;) All I'm saying is amiga did not upgraded there hardware as fast as ibm, mac and other... And I was specific to the Amiga 1200, which came with 2mb of ram out of the shop and is painful to upgrade (up to 256 with new chips and all). Tut the Amiga 4000 in 1994 had up to 16 MB out of the shop... The P24CT was a better hardware for the price ;)

@snake2006 Oh, computers today are getting so awful. They're all clones too. No more unique hardware.

Damn Small Linux is pretty light-weight (awful GUI), buuuut, a LOT of the distributions still tack on useless crap.

I'm rescuing all the old computers I can find, and only using the new stuff when needed :p

@snake2006 You got it.
