Default Re: Windows 7: Microsoft's Linux killer?

Linux killer ? Lolz, what kills windows is the volume of windows users who are n00bs. N00b windows users outnumber pro windows users with a magnitude such that if the whole of India is full of windows n00bs, only the whole of south africa is full of sensible (or above) grade windows users.

For example, I know this girl who users windows for 2 hours every day, and tried to press the monitor button to restart windows

Luckily, linux is complicated enough to be n00b proof (though ubuntu is changing all that, but then, you can always migrate over to archlinux like I did ) so that no user does something silly like download random shell scripts off the net and execute them with sudo, nor do we have each and every software distributed with installers which are in the form of shell scripts which HAVE to be run as root.
