Programming This forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

I HATE MICROSOFT BUT WE GOTTA BREATHE REALITY. THOUGH LINUX IS FAR SUPERIOR THAN WINDOWS AND ITS STABLE. THE ONE DOWN POINT WITH LINUX IS WITH ITS APPLICATION, IT'S SIMPLY ISNOT FAST AND MATURE. TILL THEN MAJORITY WILL USE WINDOWS. PLUS LINUX NEEDS TO BE MORE DEFINED IN TERMS OF NOVICES.

BY THE WAY, This is a Question?

True . True , True , all the books I have read are good and are made for advanced users , but if you can't comprehend above a 6 grade reading level you are FUCKED ..... Now yes Linux is slow when it comes to programs and there aren't alot of programs offered for Linux right now ....
"The world's computer users would be better off if the open source operating system linux were the worlds dominant operating system instead microsoft windows" WTF that is just plane stupid because if everyone used Linux yeah they would be happy because of better stability but shit hackers would be pounding out viruses as well as work-arounds. 64-bit got there first virus , NOT really a virus more of like a test tool and warning saying it can be done and can be done on any platform including Linux .
I hear people complaining about windows and every other OS out there , but if everyone used Linux it would be just as bad as Windows .Look at MAC everyone thought ooo I will be safe and look at all those new viruses targetting MACS now ...

Oh by the way this is a question , LMAO ?

2 things: firstly, what? This isn't a question. Putting a question mark at the end of a sentence doesn't make it a question.

Secondly, this is the Programming forum. This sort of thing - which is not technical - goes in General. Please try to post your ... threads in the correct forum.

I have reported this thread and expect it to be moved or closed fairly soon.

Good idea. This horse has been beaten dead in general several times over. Let's keep it there.
