Congratulations, I’m glad YOUR life works with Linux. You still are missing the point, saying “OMG LINUX IS AMAZING SWITCH OVER” DOESN’T SOLVE PROBLEMS FOR OTHERS!!
Some people simply CAN NOT switch over to Linux. If Ubuntu wasn’t so easy to switch over I wouldn’t suggest switching over to Linux unless you were an advanced user.
Personally I don’t have a clue how you made the switch over, you must have just gotten lucky and everything just worked, idiot.
Please tell me what happens when you want to do the following, really basic stuff.
A) You live on a campus who seems to only have a problem with Linux distributions. (IE University at Buffalo)
B) You want to use 2 monitors, what do you do then. Unless ubuntu or what ever the fuck you uses made that easy. Oh, Nvidia and ATI have different pieces of code you have to put into the xorg.conf. So you really can’t just copy and paste a friends xorg.conf into yours… but you have the same monitors… but different video cards.
C) Getting songs on your Ipod, do you use itunes through wine, or cedega. Or could you google for an alternative.
I’m sorry to even ask the great linux god Who can chat on instant messanger, read a large PDF file, do some CAD drawings while listening to music and leaving this thread open, oh and read his email too. FUCKING NUTS MAN!! INSANE!!! YOU ARE MY IDOL!!
Yea I agree. I switched and used Fedora but there are certain things that I just couldn’t do and dont care to spend hours and hours trying to get working right. Windows runs fine for me. I run my desktop weeks at a time. Personally, I like the prettyness of the gui in windows too. I dont care for the linux gtk look and with my dual monitors, its a pain in the ass.
PS. When did opening a large PDF file become a sign of a good OS?
