Basically i'm saying that maybe your sayings smashed right into mine instead of fitting like a puzzle peice to the debate.
Umm, no?
I posted my opinion on Linux and said that I prefer Windows to Linux. You then go off saying how Microsoft and some other companies are getting away with doing illegal things. I reply by saying that they would of been caught by now if that was such the case.
END OF STORY.
You just keep running back right around, telling me that Windows is breaking the law or they are "fishy" and are up to something.
I stated my opinion already on that fact. You keep returning to it instead of opening a new subject that can relate to the opinions that were shared. When someone gives you an opinion, that doesn't mean that you continue to run back to it and trying to convert them or prove them wrong. It's an OPINION, it's not a fact...just like when I said that I like Windows better...it's an opinion, not a fact.
And I will keep saying it: if Microsoft was breaking the law then they would of been caught by now. Did the government allow Microsoft to create monopolies? NO. If Microsoft was in total control like you say they do, then they wouldn't of even been caught on the anti-trust laws. You make it sound like Bill Gates is holding Bush Jr. by the balls and telling him what to do. Not the case at all.
And who cares if I work at Microsoft or not? If anything illegal was happening at Microsoft, do you think all of the employees would know? Give Microsoft some credit...they're not some really bad James Bond villan...they actually have smarts to not blab about it to their workers.
P.S. don't try to find ways to get the F-bomb into your posts, jokers been nabbing people for that.
Noted.
Ha, but you see, you said that they would get caught, NOT END OF STORY. It's not like i have to say for the last time that my uber programmer aunt actually discovered this in the code. And also, it IS possible for anyone to do whatever they want and keep people happy at the same time. The government doesn't go after people like microsoft because they trust them. The only people that get caught for shit like this is some hacker who created spyware, not a huge famous company that is getting billions of more money by the minute. I don't think you know how easy it is to simply create an operating system with a little peice of code that shuts down your computer if it finds something it doesn't like, and still not get caught. FUCK i wish i could find that damn website. It would say everything.
But in any case, ether which, windows sucks. I have been slowed, crashed, kicked out and deleted about a million fucking times with windows, while with linux i barly ever have a problem. It might be hard, but do you remember dos? Works in progress are always a little hard untill they work better. Besides, they've just come out with Ubuntu, which i haven't installed yet but was recommended by my aunt, i've heard it's much easyer.
Also, windows just plain doesn't work, i mean really, it doesn't, at all. ;D
But who cares, i mean, linux software is free while windows stuff is like, 400 bucks i believe.
You know what? NVM, noone believes me even though my aunt fucking hacked windows XP, but whatever.
