Vista takes a similar strategy. That's why people are suddenly shocked about
how much memory they think Vista is using.

Of course he does and that's why the Linux COLA Mafia is attacking him.
Facts have no place in COLA.

And trying to discuss points with trolls like Quack, Michael Snit Glasser,
DFS, & Moshe Flatfish Goldfarb is pointless because of teh very fact
that they *are* trolls. Glasser & Quack even change what the OP posted, to
what *they* think he posted & to suit their agenda.

It must be very comforting to them, to find each other and know that
they are not the only cretinous, immoral, attention-starved losers in
the world.

Yeah, we're a mafia because we attack (i.e. respond with disdain to)
blatant asshole trolls <eyes roll>.

These guys (DFS, Headron, Moshe, Ray Lopez) are loony tunes.

It's more than silly. They know that they are liars. They know that
we know that they are liars. Nothing they say has ANY credibility,
yet they continue to spew.

No.
You're the Linux Mafia because you twist what really happened to fit your
own version of the story and then you all pile on with your "me too" posts
hoping that people will just accept your new version of the story.

Well, I'd prefer it not explode in here.

Luckily (for him, anyway), Headron's been diligent about relieving the
pressure on his cranial bubble sac.

Oh? How do you figure? Are you saying the advocates in an advocacy
group are the attention-starved ones, not the anti-advocacy trolls?
Are you saying the advocates of freedom and choice are the immoral
ones, not the trolling supporters of the Micro$oft hegemony?

You are simply lying again, Quack. What a "surprise".

>Too bad it wasn't your fat head.[/color]

Or the single brain-cell within. Quack and his buddies are trolling
garbage, and they know it. Hell, I personally slap the **** out of
Quack multiple times a day. Not that that's all that difficult - the
snotty asshole routinely takes the immoral side of the issues, just so
that he can sling snot at his superiors...

No, what's ridiculous is that out of the top 500 computers in the world,
at least 453 - over 90% - run some flavour of Linux, while it appears 5,
or 1%, run Windows... yet Linux is somehow "ridiculous".

Frankly, the only reason Windows would even be on the list is that these
operations are big enough to have the staff and resources to actually
make Windows more or less work, something the average home and business
simply doesn't have. :)

60%, eh... Not bad for a "ridiculous" OS is it. ;-)

Seems to me that Doofy is getting hysterical about his winders world
