-Linux also lacks decent drivers for more recent hardware, such as my Canon Pixma IP5000 printer and Creative Webcam Pro.
Whats a printer? oh ya...

-Apparently Windows 95 is the last version you ever used if you seriously believe that. Windows XP Professional is rock solid - my PC has run for months without a reboot.

Windows 3.1, Windows 95, windows 98, windows 98se, windows me... windows NT, window 2000, windows xp, windows vista....

Months ey? Oh.... thats right.. When your using windows you have to reboot sometimes. Thats cute. Does rebooting fix your problem? Probably does i bet.

Heres a good comparison i like to make. Windows is the bitch. Linux is the man.

Windows complains for no apparent reason whenever it feels like it... And no matter what you try to do for it the problem doesnt go away... Then.. when you reboot it for no apparent reason the problem is gone.. until it feels upset again.

Linux hardly ever complains.. but when it does theres usually a good reason for it and rebooting never solves it. The problem is here to stay until you fix it. And of course... theres a logical way to fix it. Unless of course.. your some pewb like like this guy.

-You get what you pay for.
In most cases this is true. Computer hardware, hookers, sandwhich spread. But not this time.
