No matter       how hard the Linux community tries to attract new users, Windows users       will stick with what they know. They might experiment with a version of       Linux for a couple of days, but then abandon it in favour of buying a       new laptop with the latest version of Windows pre-installed. Better the       devil you know.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
