haha:Windows vs. Linux on the Server and the Desktop

[gary4gar]

i feel pity on this poor guy

Today I'm going to tackle one of the hottest topics in the industry, comparing Microsoft's latest offerings to the offerings being released by the major Linux players for both network servers and desktop solutions. I am going to steer clear of "total cost of ownership" arguments

ROFLMAO,

that was an excellent peice of humor

Why do you feel pity?
Windows is used by 95% computer users and they are happy with it.
If you like Linux, you have no right to abuse or pity Windows users.

[The Outsider]

Final Score: Windows 5, Linux 0

LMAO that guy is really screwed

[nitish_mythology]

This guy is definitely to b pitied...............
He wants a defragmentor and virus scanner!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rollercoaster]

i think he only knows windows (has a MCSE cert too) and thatz y.

[mehulved]

I rather feel that piece is a parody, looking at the way he's twisted the words. For example

Or it would if our pagers weren't constantly going off.

It's easy to see why XP is considered the ultimate platform for gamers.

No person in his sane mind would say that.

ROFLMAOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Windows Advanced Server lets me establish and administer global networks consisting of thousands of clients across hundreds of domains, all with a single wizard.

Yea like others servers didn't had that capability. He's so excited that windows adv. server finally lets the desperately longing fanboys do that.

Try getting a streaming video, DVD, CD, mp3, wma, and active content player all tightly integrated into a Linux server. Not likely!

Active content? Neways he forgot about propreitary linux for other things!

The Windows XP desktop is far more advanced than the laughable "home Linux solutions" from vendors like Mandrake and Lycoris, despite what some open source fascists will tell you

Poor Kid! I really pity his knowledge!

I'm running XP on the monster rig I use at home--a brand new Compaq mid-tower--and the OS blazes like a Corvette. I especially like the four games it comes with - Hearts, FreeCell (so addictive!), Minesweeper, and Solitaire. It's easy to see why XP is considered the ultimate platform for gamers.

Ok I agree windows is better in gaming area, but that kid is so happy with those 4 games?? Then he'll definitely die when he'll see the list of similar games on Linux!

One thing many home computer users are concerned with these days is viruses and all the time they consume. Linux zealots will try to say that their platform isn't plagued by things like email viruses, but with Windows XP I don't gotta worry about emailing viruses to my friends and family at all. The built-in email client Outlook Express does it automatically, in the background.

What does that insanity means?? Is he saying outlook express is more like an antivirus??

I save a lot of time thanks to Windows XP, which brings me to another area where Linux is lacking.

Gaming?

my computer is busily defragging my hard drive, running my virus scanner, and I'm being shown a list of all the latest MS security patches that are being remotely installed on my machine today.

Poor chap, so much maintainence, time wastage and ordeals he passes thru regularly!!!

Why doesn't Linux come with any defragmenting tools or virus scanners or Active Backdoor Update like you get with Windows? These are all must-have features for me.

ROFLMAO!! Fragmentation,viruses in Linux?? ROFLMAO! Any Linux noob wanna clean his hands here and remove the itchings in the palms??

Linux is seriously lacking in Internet utilities as well. No way would I run a Linux operating system if it means I can't connect to America Online.

Oh boy! He need a detailed enlightenment of how earlier Unixes connected like that when windows wasn't even born!

Also, where is Microsoft Office for Linux, Windows Media Player for Linux and Outlook Express for Linux? Nowhere to be found. If I can't type a letter, make a spreadsheet, or email anyone with Linux, why on earth would I ever put it on my desktop?

Windows fanboys in this forum can atleast reply to this!

Advantage: Windows


Final Score: Windows 5, Linux 0

Yea rt! Thats funny now!


I dunno why MS certifications decreases the brains of a person, increases his insolence and insanity, nulls his judgement capabilties and makes him a complete retard!

[mehulved]

Anybody read this http://www.divisiontwo.com/articles/windows_no.htm?

[mediator]

^^ Oh boy, what a fanboy Jorge Lopez is ! He's so excited about the name that he wrote a whole page on it ! He is equivalent to Lalu on OS issues! Have Mercy!

[eddie]

Great writing...he hides his sarcasm very well

[Desi-Tek.com]

this is not fair. xp is not that bad read this 1 how linux screwed his life

[mehulved]

Well there are dangers in everything. Things go wrong. But it's not always the fault of the OS.

ROFLMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! , THat whole page gives me an impression that the kid wrote that after getting huge sums of money from MS! He relates Linux users to hackers and windows users as innocent phreaks. No where in the post he compared Linux to Windows and all the way just kept on saying how he installed windows. He didnt even elobarated his statement "I've seen the light" clearly and kept talking open-source and closed-source softwares in opposite terms !

I think he's making fun of Windows in most humble manner with BSOD on windows Xp desktop!

Nice article! An open-source guy migrating to closed source?? and then saying "I've seen the light"?? ROFLMAO!!

[red_hat]

its all for honey and he even not able to make a good story to change our mind..lol.....

[piyush gupta]

this all is his fault

[praka123]

that guy posted 3 yrs back.y should we ROFL here now?

[GNUrag]

Because he has written a very funny article with very strong sarcastic statements.

[shaunak]

He's even put up his picture.

Hey but lest not bash either of the two OSes.
Well we must admit both windows and linux have their issues and must be sorted out as they evolve. Linux must bring in more uniformity and windows must become more secure.

Another false story spread by Linux Men!

[NikhilVerma]

Linux is not all that bad either

[praka123]

@drsethi: if u understand the ethics behind Linux,U will not be here to support Window$ .
so i'll say read,read and again read about Free Software and Open Source,GPL. as medics rely on referring and reading their books.

``Free software'' is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should think of ``free'' as in ``free speech,'' not as in ``free beer.''

read-Linux is free software and Linux is only the kernel

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system (18k characters) every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is more often known as ``Linux'', and many users are not aware of the extent of its connection with the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is not the operating system. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in a combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU, with Linux functioning as its kernel.

Dear Prakash
I am not against Linux. As a matter of fact I am using it, at present SuSE.
But I am against spreading false/exaggerated stories about Windows.
I also use Windows but it never caused any serious problem. I am yet to see BSOD in Windows vista.

I Don Know What is with you guys

jus because Microsoft is not for free and linux is for free. Microsoft is Crap.

i.e
Linux is not free and windows is for free

Yes it would've been

CHEAP THINKING but after all WE ARE HUMANS
