Mark you call yourself a Linux guy and you defend Windows? How dare you! :D Just kidding...

A lot of Windows freezes could be related to spyware as well. Don't get me started when I used to work for MS call center and dealt with people when the Sasser virus broke. Lets just say a lot of people shouldn't be using a computer.

There are some things you still have to use the terminal with, like when an application you want isn't in the repos and they don't have a deb or rpm for it so you have to install it from source which is annoying, but frankly that doesn't happen all too often and in distros like ubuntu you never have to use the terminal really...

You are doing something wrong if you feel you need to use the terminal all the time.

I file that under the "user issues" category I mentioned earlier. Inadequate protection/configuration, or plain stupidity in allowing a random web popup to "clean" your computer. ;)

Nothing is 100% fool proof since there will always be a better fool out there. :)

BTW, what is that "Dead Like Me" thing in your signature about? I liked that show when it was on.

Nothing is foolproof because there is always a bigger fool around the corner. ;)

It's clickable. :whistle: It takes you to the IMDB site for the DVD movie release coming up. My wife and I both loved that show.

Oh sweet, I have signatures turned off -- but me and the wife were also big fans of that show.. Will have to let her know there is a movie coming out..

Should be good ;)

After the departure of Rube Sofer, a new head reaper named Cameron Kane takes over. He's a slick businessman who couldn't care less about helping the newly dead. Chaos ensues and brings out the worst in Daisy and Mason who begin drinking anew. George and Reggie re-connect for the first time when George reaps a new friend of Reggie's.

Here is a trailer

Oh the new head reaper is Desmond from Lost ;)

      By MacDaddyAz · Posted

      Isn’t it so sweet Microsoft after so many years of neglect, they admit to these issues in Windows lately? Doesn’t this just make you wanna run out and meet them halfway to give them a warm hug only? Just gives us this warm fuzzy feeling thinking about it. /s

      Anybody that thinks flying cars were possible are idiots. Everyone would basically need a pilot licence, can you imagine how insane and dangerous that would be, people can barely handle driving on land safely right now.
