Linux is only free if your time has no value.

Funny, relatively few people have problems like these in Linux compared
to Windows. But we all know about the problems Windows has so nobody
bothers mention them any more, while people like you think it's fun to
point the finger at Linux and rave about how bad it is, because of what
happens in a much smaller minority of cases than Windows. ;)

Would you listen to Micoshaft sponsored fraudsters pounding
their asstroturfing sock puppets that claim something as big
as Linux has no value just because Linux is a direct threat to their
business?


Certainly NOT!

You would go try some free Linux out first.

If Linux is so bad, then how come something like GParted liveCD
can boot a dead PC and repair a hosed hard disk on a WINDUMMY PC?

And how come Sabayon Linux just boots from CD and has a 3D desktop
with 3D games like Nexuiz?

Also the freeze experience of real life Micoshaft WINDUMMY PCs is that
they freeze more often in every office, every day, every minute of every
day.


Switching to Linux helps prevent freezing PCs in the office (TM).

"Microsoft has directed its anonymous propaganda agents to
post hundreds of lies of the form "Linux freezes ...", which
assert that all installations of Linux freeze. What each
of these lies actually reference is a single report of some
relatively rare problem, often found to be caused by bad memory
or other hardware. When it is due to a Linux software bug,
it's usually solved very quickly -- within ten hours of the
original help request in this case. The vast majority of
Linux users _never_ experience such problems." - Mentally ill Linux
"advocate" Mark S Bilk

I am administering linux installed on approximately 20 machines (home
and work). Out of them about 16 are Ubuntu. One experiences periodic
freezes (once a week), and that one runs Ubuntu Hardy. I have
approximately 7 or so more Ubuntu Hardy machines (desktops and
laptops) and they do not freeze, in the last 2 months or so at least.

Everything running Gutsy is totally rock solid. However, I feel that
installing Hardy on anything where big money is at stake, is premature
at this point.

I try to make sure that these Gutsy machines are upgradeable. I have a
feeling that Hardy is improving and in several months I will start
deploying it to some production servers.

Somewhat contrary to this, I installed Hardy on my replacement
personal webserver a while ago and it seems to be in good shape, I
will take it to the data center soon.

Well I think it interesting that when Vista goes belly up the fanboys
blame the hardware, the drivers, the OEMs or whatever but when Linux
machines have a problem it's "Linux sucks".

Lets be fair here, I have had several identical machines and one froze
randomly no matter what OS it was running.

Usually it's the drivers. Sometimes it's OEM crapware, for those who have
OEM crapware. Occasionally it's the hardware.

Well, it does suck, and it sucks independently of anything to do with
Windows.

That latter point isn't too salient for whatever it is you are pleased to
pass off to unsuspecting passers-by as your brain, is it?
