Then you have to install the drivers for all the hardware which requires
a few reboots, then you have to install all the applications you use. In
the same time frame I have a working MDK 10.1 system, all apps and
drivers installed and never had to reboot.

So you're saying you dont have to load the network card drivers, video
card drivers, sound card drivers and reboot after each install? That is a
blatent lie. Do you think people that use Linux have never or arent
currenly using Windows as well?
