all of the above. the same week i finally installed linux I had bsod's every 3-4 days and a program freeze at least once a day. such hell to do daily activities.
You gave multiple options, and even the choice for all of the above, but your poll is in the form of only 1 choice when more than 1, but not all, might apply
Oh, and I don't hate windoze, I just tend to enjoy my Linux too much to bother with the trials of it
Shortly thereafter they got access to a PDP-10 run by a private company in Seattle. The company offered free time to the Lakeside school kids to see if they could crash the system. Gates proved to be particularly adept at doing so. When the free time ran out Gates and Allen figured out how to get free time on the PDP-10 by logging on as the system operator. About a year later the private company running the PDP-10 went bankrupt.
I see that Billy boy hasn't lost his touch, then.

yeah i don't hate windows either actually. i disliked that it took a long time to boot up and random things would happen that i couldn't figure out and i couldn't figure out how to get rid of them. but in general, for what i used it for it worked perfectly fine. linux does too. i just have more opporunity to do neater things in linux than windows.
i hate windows. i hate windows a lot. ms has put blinders on the people. its like in the matrix, everyone thinks that windows is just how it is until you try linux and find out there is a whole different computer world out there. a better one.
that is why we must always work to spread the word of linux and wake more people up to the goodness.
I don't hate Windows, I just don't like the way Microsoft conducts business, false promises and such about their goals and products. Their like the government, they seem to not stick to their original plan. Oh well...
i dont hate windows, imho there nt based stuff is pretty good. what i dont like is the new licence agreements that microsoft has been coming up with for xp. if people actually start and read them then i think microsoft is gonna start losing alot of its customers.
