I'll take bets on it! > You'd be wrong. It is my preferred OS now! He was talking about a preference in "the main stream" but if I had money to actually bet, I still think he'd lose that bet! With Linspire, other distro's getting more powerful and user friendly, Microshaft's unexpected delay in ther new OS version, Apple FINALLY going to PC Platform like they should have years ago, DOSEMU, Wine, Win4Lin, people getting fed up with Winshit problems and the list goes on and on and on -- it is my opinion that M$'s Imperial Reign of the Market is on borrowed time. I am starting my migration towards Linux being fed up with Winshit. If I had to guess, at LEAST BARE MINIMUM -- one person PER DAY in the US and Canada makes the choice i've made to learn Linux and migrate to it and shitcan Windows. Also if you include my parents, a friend of theirs and one of my clients (josephsjewelersonline.com) then technically Microshaft is losing FIVE PEOPLE on my descision to migrate. So I give M$ 10 years OR LESS before their reign comes to an end. -- .---------------------------------------------------------------. | [TiME WaRRiOR] aka [Dave Kelso] AIM: Twar782 | +o Malkavia BBS | | www : synchsupport.net - malkaviabbs.com - xpresit.net | | www$: josephsjewelersonline.com - preferedinsurance.com | | @: time.warrior@malkaviabbs. com | \______________________________________________________________/ --- Synchronet 3.12a-Win32 NewsLink 1.76 * Malkavia - Chicago, IL - telnet://malkaviabbs.com --- Synchronet 3.13b-Win32 NewsLink 1.83 .
